The mission of the Alliance Française of New Orleans (AFNO) is to inspire and facilitate interaction and understanding between the people of Greater New Orleans and those of French speaking lands through quality education and community involvement.
The AFNO offers French classes for students of all ages and levels--including classes Uptown, the French Quarter, the Northshore, and Online. Courses for adults include levels Beginner to Proficient. Our Petite Alliance, French for Kids programming offers courses and workshops from 3 years old.
We are a certified testing center and administer the DELF, DALF, and TEF exams, which are the only internationally accepted French proficiency tests.
We also develop and host cultural and social events--including film screenings, lectures, apèros (cocktail socials), wine tastings, cooking courses, concerts, and more! Check out our Cultural Calendar for all our upcoming events.
