*In an effort to bring AFL in line with standard procedures in Alliance Française chapters around the world, we request that all students in adult classes be members of AFL. Since AFL students are indeed students, they will be able to purchase a membership at the student rate of $25 per year. Being a member has its benefits ― members receive the e-newsletter, the Quoi de Neuf, a review of AFL's current events and/or news of happenings in the neighborhood with a French and/or francophone connection, and other notices such as "Save the Date" announcements. In addition, members have access to special prices and discounts for events and also to "member-only" events. These membership requirements do not apply to children's classes, however, we do encourage that families join so that they will be able to enjoy all of AFL's privileges.
