Conversation Groups

Our French language conversation groups are open to all AF DuPage members regardless of French fluency.  All levels of French are welcome and we  invite beginners & native speakers to come together for informal  conversation.


Members, please watch your email for an invitation. No need to pre-register.


You can also consult our Calendar for future dates.


AF  DuPage continues to follow CDC and state and local safety guidelines at  its events. By attending AF DuPage in-person events, participants  voluntarily agree to assume full responsibility and liability for any  risks incurred and agree not to hold AF DuPage, Inc. or its Directors or  Officers liable for any illness or injury.


We  highly recommend vaccinations and boosters for attendees, and an attendance list will be passed around at indoor events to enable contact  tracing if necessary

For  in-person conversation groups, we are unable to reserve tables, so  seating will be first come, first served. 

On Zoom

Wednesday, February 22, 7:00 pm


The Zoom link will be sent to all members one day before the event. There is no need to pre-register.


Zoom  sessions may be divided into small “breakout rooms” which enable more  intimate conversation with some of your AF DuPage friends. 

Marcher et Bavarder

Come energize your morning with your AF DuPage friends and speak French while walking. We meet each month, weather permitting, in a local park or forest preserve, alternating between Saturdays and Sundays. Where will we go next? North, South, East or West? Come back soon to find out.

Apéro National by the Federation of Alliances Françaises

An opportunity to chat, en français, with Alliance Française members across the United States.
 

Wednesday evenings, 7:00-8:00 pm Central Time, hosted by Linda Witt, Federation of Alliances Françaises USA Board President


Attendees will be assigned to  breakout rooms of 4-5 people, with each breakout session lasting 12-14  minutes. The rooms are then re-created (for a different mix each time). In this way, participants get to meet and chat with a variety of  participants from different backgrounds and fluency levels.


This  group is for intermediate to advanced (or fluent) speakers who are  current members of an Alliance Française chapter in the U.S.
