Alliance Francaise Workshop: Jean de La Fontaine’s Fables

A family-friendly workshop invites children to explore classic French literature through hands-on art and interactive animation.

Alliance Française Workshop: Jean de La Fontaine’s Fables takes place on Saturday, January 17 at the Coral Gables Museum. Designed as part of the museum’s Family Day programming, the workshop introduces young participants to the imaginative world of Jean de La Fontaine through creative play, storytelling and visual discovery.

Children color illustrated scenes inspired by the fables, which are then brought to life as a short animated story using a mobile app. Projected animated clips featuring animal characters and story settings add a shared visual layer to the experience. The program is presented by Alliance Française Miami Metro, part of a global network dedicated to promoting the French language and francophone cultures through education and community-based cultural programming.
