Education Outreach:
Young Audience Program

The Young Audience Program offers school groups, educational and entertaining events, selected for their artistic excellence, as well as their connection to French and Francophone cultures. As a not-for-profit organization, FIAF is proud to offer this education outreach program as a learning enhancement outside of the classroom and we hope to inspire students to learn French with even greater enthusiasm!
