Fall Open House 2026

C'est la rentrée ! We invite all French speakers, Francophiles, and French-at-heart to join us for our annual Open House. Get a taste of our exciting offerings, take a sneak peek at the fall season, meet like-minded people, and take advantage of special discounts that apply for that evening only.

Come in, mingle, and discover a little piece of France right in the heart of Boston!
This event is free, but an RSVP is required. No prior experience with French is necessary to attend the event.

Check out the new shelves, the latest arrivals, and learn more about upcoming library programs. You'll also be able to browse and purchase French Library merch on the spot!

Take a placement test and register for a fall class! Meet our teachers and learn more about our classes for kids, teens, and adults. Classes registered that evening will receive a special discount — for that night only.

At the French Library, we are a community of people united in the French spirit of joie de vivre – the joy of living. We build friendships around culture and ideas.

Have a chat with our current members to know what they like the most about the French Library, why they decided to join us, what they have accomplished, and of course, share their love of Francophone culture. Join or renew your membership (at a discounted fee) and explore our member perks and member-exclusive events.
