Alliance Française Omaha has partnered with independent group Café et Conversation Midwest to bring Omaha and the Midwest’s francophones a French conversation event every week of the year!

C&C is a casual weekly meetup to practice/speak French. Whether you are a beginner, native speaker, or somewhere in between, C&C is the group for you! C&C meets at various locations in the Omaha area as well as Lincoln and Sioux City. Events are free to attend and all are welcome.

AFO will share C&C’s events on our website event calendar, but we also encourage you to join the C&C community via their email list and private Facebook group below.

OÙ ET QUAND?

Bonjour à tous! We want to welcome one and all to an outstanding opportunity to attend two great events for the price of one.

First, join us for the chance to practice French where all levels of speaking are welcome. Be prepared to tell the group your favorite French artist and your favorite work of art, en français, of course. Bringing prepared notes is welcome. Remember that everyone was a beginner at one time.

Second, after Back to Basics, feel free to wander the museum by yourself or with others from the group and view some world-class art. We'll meet at the Joslyn café, which features coffee drinks, beer, wine and nibbles. There's parking on the north side of the building. The fee for both Back to Basics and the entrance to the museum is $0. What a bargain!

We'll be meeting at 1:00pm on March 16th in the café area of the Joslyn Art Museum. When you arrive, look for C&C Back to Basics organizers Dennis Vaughn and Ryan Foehlinger. Let us know that you’re coming by RSVPing below. Hope to see you there!
