Bienvenue to the community.

Joining AFNO was the best decision I made after moving to New Orleans. The Ciné-club, the library, the conversations — it feels like a little piece of France right here at home. I've made friends and kept my French alive!

Membership questions.

Everything you need to know before joining the AFNO family.

How long does a membership last?

AFNO memberships are valid for one year from the date you join. You'll receive a reminder when it's time to renew, so your benefits never lapse.

What's included with my membership?

Every membership includes discounts on AFNO classes, workshops, and events; free entry to the monthly Book Club and Ciné-club; borrowing privileges from our French library; access to Culturethèque's digital collection; and exclusive discounts at our local partner businesses across New Orleans.

Can I sign up as a family or an individual?

Yes! We offer individual memberships as well as household memberships that cover two adults living at the same address. Choose the level that fits you best when you select your membership below.

How do renewals work?

Near the end of your membership year, we'll email you a renewal reminder with a quick link to renew online. You can also renew at any time from your membership to keep your benefits continuous.

Can I gift a membership?

Absolutely — an AFNO membership makes a thoughtful gift for the Francophile in your life. Simply purchase the membership level you'd like to gift and contact us at marketing@af-neworleans.org to arrange delivery of the gift membership to your recipient.
