Getting There

Due to ongoing stay-at-home restrictions, Frenchy Fed Free Workshops has now been cancelled. The Knot will be staying at Fed Square until September 19, so we look forward to sharing Cyril Lancelin’s incredible, immersive sculpture with you all when we return.

Immerse yourself in French culture with a free workshop!

Your Frenchy Weekends experience wouldn’t be complete without attending a special Frenchy Fed Free Workshop.

Learn the Dos and Don’ts of French etiquette, or how to impress your friends by hosting a très jolie party. Sip on mimosas as you learn to paint like Monet* or bring the kids to learn how to make a rouge (red), blanc (white) and bleu (er, blue) cockade to celebrate the French spirit of liberté, égalité and fraternité!

The full program is below, so check it out, rally your amis (friends) and get booking! Strictly limited numbers.

*Sadly, we can’t guaranteed this in one class. But keep trying!

Presented by Fed Square in partnership with Alliance Française de Melbourne.
