Open Evening 2025

Another successful ACFAA Open Evening took place on Thursday 4th September at La Gare in Eymet.

This is one of the most important events in the calendar, and a great opportunity to meet up with friends again before all the regular activities begin.

Group leaders or their representatives were available to describe their plans with new and returning members.  A number of groups have revised schedules so please check their webpages for the latest information here.

The languages team, who offer classes in French and English, were in high demand.  All French ‘beginner’ classes are now fully booked and have waiting lists but there are still places available on ‘intermediate’ level and above.  Space remains on all three levels of our English classes.  For details of Language Classes and availability click here.

Claire Riley, recently re-elected for a third term as ACFAA President, said: “Although the majority of our members sign up online, we also take many inscriptions in person at our Open Evening.  “We now have members from 26 countries globally which reflects the vibrant and multi-cultural community that we all enjoy in this beautiful part of France.”

Two days later, ACFAA took part again in Eymet’s day-long Forum of Associations event, where we received more membership applications, and joined in the promotion of the wide range of cultural, social and health-related clubs that exist locally.
