Welcome to the Alliance Francaise de Pittsburgh!

The Alliance Française de Pittsburgh, founded in 1903, is a non-profit organization, member of the Federation of Alliances Françaises in the United States. Its purpose is to encourage the study of French language, literature and francophone cultures and to promote activities in the fields of education, the arts and entertainment.

As our name implies, we strive to "ally" ourselves with people of all nationalities. With 1,100 Alliance Française chapters in 130 countries, the cultural presence of France reaches out every day, strengthening ties between countries and creating better understanding between people everywhere.

The Alliance Française de Pittsburgh has some 200 members and offers classes and programs that are open to all without discrimination. We offer a variety of social and cultural events and programs in French and in English.
