Alliance Française de Grand Rapids On Going Activities
French Movie Night
Once a month during the winter a French movie is shown at a member's house. The movie, always a French classic, is selected by a French professor at Calvin College. Commentary, and discussion afterwards, gives members valuable insight about the French movie industry.
Beaujolais Nouveau
AF de Grand Rapids members stick to tradition and host a Beaujolais Nouveau reception the third Thursday of November. The event is held at a member's home and includes a discussion about the current year's Beaujolais Nouveau by a local wine expert.
Conversation Group
Throughout the year, except the summer, AF de Grand Rapids members and people interested in improving their French conversational skills meet casually the second Saturday of the month at the Cherie Inn for breakfast. All skill levels are invited and all are encouraged to participate. People interested in attending should call Linda at 616 827-7214.
Bastille Day
AF de Grand Rapids annually celebrates Bastille Day at member's home. The event is always held on the Sunday closest to July 14.
Membership Reception
The membership reception is an annual event and a way for AF de Grand Rapids members to introduce prospective new members to the organization.
Wine Tasting
The winter wine tasting event gives AF members a chance to learn about the wines of France from an expert. Each year a different wine region is selected, giving members a chance to taste up to six different wines.
