GSIE, French Embassy Partner for 'Café, Croissants and Culture' March 31
The Cultural Services of the French Embassy, in partnership with the Graduate School and International Education, will offer "Café, Croissants and Culture" from 7-11 a.m. Friday, March 31, at the Lambeth Lounge at Carnall Hall. The first 25 guests will receive complimentary coffee and croissants.
The event is being held as part of the French Cultures Festival 2023. Each year in March, the Cultural Service of the French Embassy in Houston coordinates the French Cultures Festival in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas. A celebration of the diversity of "francophonie," it brings together people who not only speak French, but also feel, in one way or another, connected to France and the Francophone community.
