French Heritage Society’s Northern California Chapter advances the organization’s mission to ensure that the treasures of French architectural and cultural heritage survive to delight, educate and inspire future generations in San Francisco and the surrounding area.
The chapter organizes novel programs ranging from chocolate tastings to Provençal luncheons for supporters, and members gather on an annual basis for the Fête des Rois celebration. These activities fund restoration grants for sites in France with meaningful and unique histories. The chapter also launched the Concours de Poésie, a French-language poetry contest for local students, in 2023.
