From Paris, With Love
Annual Fundraising Gala
February 22, 2025
The Post Oak Hotel,
1600 W Loop S, Houston, TX 77027
Starting at 6:30pm
As we embark on our second century, we reflect on the progress we have made over the past year. Thanks to our community's support, we are witnessing a reawakening in our mission to bridge Houston’s Francophone and Francophile communities. Yet, there is still much work to be done to further our vision.
We are excited to announce our 2025 Gala, scheduled for Saturday, February 22 at the prestigious Post Oak Hotel. We invite you to consider becoming a sponsor for this event, which promises to be a highlight of the cultural calendar.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to support the Alliance Française de Houston. We look forward to the possibility of partnering with you for a successful Gala.
