May 23, 2022 | Yosua Ng
Being the World’s largest cultural associations network, with over 800 centres located in more than 130 countries, Alliance Française continues to fulfil its mission of promoting the French language and francophone cultures, along with facilitating deeper exchanges between the French speakers and the local communities. Centrally located at Sarkies Rd, Alliance Française de Singapour which was founded in 1949, served the community for more than 70 years, developing mutual understanding through the French language education and cultural arts. The iconic brightly-coloured-facade building is equipped with an in-house indoor theatre (le théâtre), classrooms, library (la médiathèque), café (Le Café) and an art gallery (la galerie).
