La Maison Française
La Maison Française at Nazareth University is both a residence hall as well as a staple of French culture in the Rochester area. Each year la Maison Française welcomes up to 12 students interested in French language and francophone cultures as well as those hailing from francophone countries.
This spacious converted mansion also serves as a meeting place for Le Cercle Français (the French Club), and welcomes joint events with other cultural groups devoted to the promotion of French language and Francophone cultures in Rochester. It also hosts stand alone events for Rochester-area Francophiles. Cultural dinners, conversation groups, French language courses, lectures, movies, and exhibits are among the countless events offered by La Maison each semester.
Gifts of any amount help support this very special resource and gathering place in our community.
