AF DuPage continues a new concept – the mini-Zoom session – a 20 minute focused presentation on a French-themed subject.
Most sessions will take place on Thursday afternoons promptly at 12:30 pm, a perfect midday break to add some French culture into your schedule.
The topics and presenters will vary. Most will be conducted in English, but we may add some French language mini-Zooms into the
mix.
Zoom links are reserved for AF DuPage members and will be sent out the day before the session.
Visit our Membership page to join or renew your membership.
Do you have a great idea for a mini-zoom? We would love to hear about it. Please contact us at afdupage@gmail.com with your ideas.
Indulge your love of French from the comfort of your home by attending online events. Talks on a variety of intriguing subjects are available from the Federation of Alliances Françaises USA as well as AF chapters from across the United States. Many events are free for AF members and available to non-members for a small charge.
View a list of upcoming events at AF network's free online national events.
Links to recordings of past events can be found on YouTube.
AF DuPage programs are reserved for AF DuPage members only, although occasionally we invite members of other AF chapters to participate in special programs. Due to security and privacy reasons, AF DuPage program, event and recording links may not be shared, posted or broadcast.
