I'm setting up an online French conversation circle for Arts, Culture, and Heritage industry for Thursday, April 10th, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM PST. This initial meeting will be laid back as we meet and greet people in our best French over Zoom. The circle is being
supported by a couple other people in the industry, but not affiliated with any institution.</div>

The form is very quick but will help us get an idea of our participants and how we could make conversation circles most helpful to you.</div>

Ideally, I'd like to move forward with a monthly meeting, but it will depend how many participants and different levels of French we get. Share this with anyone you think might be interested and feel free to contact me with any questions or suggestions (ebeardmore@kelownamuseums.ca).</div>
