AFD Grand Opening @ ISD


We are proud to officially announce our partnership with ISD. The Alliance Française de Denver would like to invite you to our Grand Opening event at ISD to celebrate together our move to this wonderful new location. 

For this inaugural event we have decided to commemorate the 100th anniversary of G Brassens’ birth. A free photo exhibition will present this iconic French singer's life and his most famous songs will be performed live on stage by a local band : N Busquet (feat. M Isabell & C Ringwood). DJ Titi de Nice will also be invited as a special guest to perform at this event. George Brassens (1921-1981) is considered one of France's most accomplished poets, and one of its most iconic singer-songwriters.
This event is free of charge for all our members (discount is applied at check out when logged in) and we ask for a small contribution of $10 for non-members who would like to participate. Entrance comes with two free drinks and there will be a variety of French finger food available for sale during the event. 



Masks will be required at all times (while indoors) unless actively eating or drinking, and we will ask for a proof of vaccination or a negative rapid test (within 48 hours) to enter the event. We're modeling what seems to be a successful way some event forums are handling concerts and gatherings. 



Event schedule:

  • 5.00 pm doors open,
  • 6.00 pm Solo performance (guitar and voice): Nicolas Busquet sings G. Brassens ("Traditional Style")
  • 7.00 pm Trio performance: N Busquet (vocals, guitar), M Isabell (guitar), C Ringwood (upright bass) play Brassens ("Gypsy Jazz style")
  • 8.00 DJ Titi de Nice starts his set (and everybody jumps on the dance floor).









Sorry, you've missed the RSVP deadline for this event.

WHAT OUR MEMBERS ARE SAYING

Lir M.

I'd like to start this off by thanking you for teaching me so much French. You were a great teacher and you helped me learn so many new things. I'd also like to apologize for missing a lot of lessons, although I'm sure that I would've rather gone to them. Again, you are the best teacher I've ever had, and it's sad to say goodbye to you.

Alliance Française de Denver created a wonderful virtual environment where I spent my Summer vacation; visiting the winemaking area of Bouzy; celebrating Bastille Day; learning how to cook with flowers; touring historic châteaux and beautiful villages; all in the safety and comfort of my home.

A real treat for any Francophone person; especially having a daily place for French chat to try out and maintain colloquial skills.

Anne is fantastic! The material is fast paced for this "old dog" to learn new tricks, but we could not go slower. It has been very helpful to prepare me for my trip to France.

A great place to learn and practice French while getting acquainted with French culture and interesting people. I definitely recommend AFD and their events. Je parle français! Et vous?
