OUR MISSION

Our mission is to promote and advocate for French culture and language programs and to foster cultural and educational exchanges and partnerships that develop community between Central Oklahoma and the French-speaking world.

 

OUR HISTORY

Since 1955, we have led the effort to cultivate relationships and develop communities between Central Oklahoma and the French-speaking world.

The founders of the Alliance Française of Oklahoma City defined their mission in 1955 as follows: “to teach the speaking, reading and writing of the French language, the appreciation of French culture, art, music, drama, dance and cinema, and to advance and encourage friendship and mutual respect between the people of France and America”.

Today the Alliance Française is discovering a new energy. Our goal is to continue to meet the needs of our local chapter in line with the founders’ original mission, and to respond to the requests from our Franco-American community to expand and enrich our programs.

Thank you for your curiosity, participation, and support.
