FIAF presents a unique mix of arts programs including music, dance, theater, cinéma, and visual arts. The two main cultural platforms are Crossing the Line and World Nomads (see below). Cinéma screenings feature classic and contemporary French films through the CinémaTuesdays program, and the FIAF Gallery regularly exhibits contemporary French artists.
FIAF also offers opportunities to learn more about French culture through Art de Vivre—a lifestyle series that features culinary and wine classes, as well as conversations with fashion designers and artisans.
