SUMMARY:Paris Beyond the Eiffel Tower
DESCRIPTION:Are you planning a trip to Paris but have already visited all the usual sites? Are you tired of fighting the crowds to get into the Eiffel Tower and the Musée d’Orsay? Would you like to spend more time where people speak French—and answer you in French? Or is this your first visit to Paris\, and you want to see more than the Tour Eiffel? Nikki Matheson will take you on a virtual tour of some lesser-known sites in Paris\, places that reflect more on the lives of Parisians than the Parvis Notre Dame. Along with these sites\, she’ll show you some of the ubiquitous street art that gives life to the city’s neighborhoods. \nPresenter: Nikki Matheson \nNikki Matheson lived and worked in Paris for 14 years and has been a student of this enthralling city ever since. Living in Vermont since 2000\, she has continued her bilingual life\, teaching French across the state and serving as a translator and interpreter. We know her well through her long-term teaching at the AFLCR.  \nLanguage: English \nHost: Erik Trinkaus \nPlace: Zoom \nClick here to register \nNot sponsored by AFduME.

SUMMARY:"Le Temps d'un Été" screening
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the first of two FREE screenings of “Le Temps d’un Été” by Louise Archambault and Marie Vien. This moving Québécois film follows Marc Côté\, a street chaplain and parish priest who\, after years of exhaustion\, decides to take a group of homeless people on a much-needed retreat to the Bas-du-Fleuve region. In French with English subtitles. We screened this film during last year’s Champlain Film Festival\, and it was so well received that we’ve decided to show it again. Discussion to follow screening. Brought to you thanks to the generous support of the Délégation du Québec à Boston.

Two hundred years after Expulsion of the Acadians by the British (1755–1764)\, Acadian culture is still very much alive.

SUMMARY:"Paris Lost and Found: A Memoir of Love": Meet the Author
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next Meet the Author event! \nWhen: January 22nd at 7PM\nWho’s the author? Scott Carpenter\nWhat’s the book? “Paris Lost and Found: A Memoir of Love”\n\n\n\nJoin us for a conversation with the the celebrated American author Scott Carpenter as we discuss his latest book “Paris Lost and Found: A Memoir of Love”.\n\n\n“After his hilarious introduction to Paris in French Like Moi\, Scott Carpenter returns to the scene of the crime with more tales of intrigue. \nThis time\, though\, the story takes a surprising turn as his wife struggles with dementia. Humor may be the best medicine\, but even the antics of a vandal in their building can’t cement the tiles of her memory for long. Before he expects it\, Carpenter finds himself alone in a capital that is also blighted by the pandemic. \nIt’s against this backdrop that the city comes roaring back to life. From bizarre encounters on the Metro to comical clashes with authority figures\, and even a quixotic battle against a flock of migrant parrots\, Paris Lost and Found unveils sides of the great city that are as quirky as they are authentic. With his unique blend of wit\, insight\, and wistfulness\, Carpenter charts a path through his new labyrinth of solitude—only to emerge on the other side\, squinting into the bright light of hope and new beginnings.” \n\nWe hope you can join us for what promises to be a warm\, funny and insightful conversation about a city that is dear to so many hearts. Copies of the book can be ordered here. (It could also make a great holiday gift for your favorite francophile.) \n\nThis event is FREE to attend\, but we ask that you please register here.
