The French Table has returned to Vermilionville! You spoke, and we listened. Our monthly French Table is now the Second Saturday of each month starting at 9 a.m. Come and grab your place at the table to hear and speak some of Acadiana’s French language! This French Table is FREE to everyone and is for all levels and dialects of French speakers. No matter your proficiency, Vermilionville’s French Table is a great place to improve your understanding and speaking of French! The vocabulary has a new theme each month, so you will always learn something new with us. Come out and experience Louisiana French with us!
