In honor of this year's French National Week, the Romance Languages Department is inviting you to an eSport evening at The Tate Gameroom. 

Come to play or to watch people play the latest version of the famous soccer game franchise FIFA. France is both a famous soccer nation and a major eSport nation that our department is proud to highlight during this event. 

So, whether you wanna play as France or against France, you are welcome to join and meet fellow teammates or challengers.

In honor of the National French Week, the Romance Languages department is inviting you to join us and the Classic City Pétanque Club for an afternoon of “boules”. 

You can come anytime between 1:30 and 4:30pm.

The Classic City Club volunteers will be there to provide all the equipment and to train anyone who is coming to discover this traditional French sport.

In honor of this year's National French Week, the Romance Languages department is inviting anyone on campus to submit an original piece of art on the theme "France is not Paris".

To be featured in this collaborative art exhibit, please either bring your work or send your work before November 12th to Leah Hall (leah.hall@uga.edu) who works at the front desk in the lobby of Gilbert Hall. The works submitted will be hung on the first floor of Gilbert Hall for two weeks after the submission deadline.
