Who Are We?

We are a club at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) dedicated to French/Francophone culture. We have no membership costs or requirements. There is no knowledge of French language required.

We host two events a month during the semester. One of those events is always off-campus and the other is on-campus. On-campus events include, but are not limited to, film screenings, holiday parties, and LOTS OF FOOD!

Off-campus events are typically hosted by a third party for a discounted price. These events have included French operas, concerts, restaurant visits, and book signings.

Upcoming Events

Our first meeting is February 10th at 4:30 p.m. via Zoom! We'll have a welcome and introduction time and chat casually about what's in store for this semester. Stay tuned for more upcoming events soon! In the meantime, don't forget to sign up here for one of our new French Club T-Shirts. The t-shirt will be $15-18, depending on how many people sign up to purchase it.
