AF DuPage visit to Christkindlmarkt Aurora
RiverEdge Park, 360 N. Broadway, Aurora, IL 60505
Join your AF DuPage friends for a visit to the Christmas market and enjoy some of the seasonal fun while speaking French along the way as you browse the various vendors. Based on an authentic European holiday market, it offers a unique shopping experience with gift ideas and food vendors.
We'll explore the market in small groups and then meet up together in the heated Timber Tent for some catch up around a mug of vin chaud or hot chocolate.
Please RSVP here to let us know you are coming. Merci!
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.
Stay tuned for our next Marcher Bavarder event details.
Get some exercise and speak French with your Alliance Française DuPage friends.
For all Marcher-Bavarder sessions it's helpful for you to RSVP to let us know if you’re coming. We’ll ask for your mobile phone number so we can contact you if needed on the day of the event.
Wear comfortable walking shoes/sneakers and bring your own water.
We will email meeting instructions the day before the event to all who have RSVP'd.
Our Rendez-vous provides more opportunities to say “Bonjour” to each other and for you to interact with the AF DuPage leadership team. Think of them as mini Open House meetings. The details are simple!
Our upcoming Rendez-Vous Avec Nous - All times 2:00 - 4:00 pm
Please email us at afdupagevp@gmail.com if you have any questions and/or if you plan to attend our “Rendezvous avec nous”. RSVPs are not required but helpful, so we have an idea of who to expect.
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 Past-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.
