Bonjour, New York!
On Sunday, July 11, 2010 celebrate French culture at NYC’s annual three-block fête
on 60th Street from 12pm to 6pm!
Each year, Bastille Day on 60th Street brings the best of France
to New York for
an afternoon of activities and delights for the entire family. Kids can
play a round
of pétanque or get their faces painted at the Kids Corner
booth. From tasting
delicious treats to listening to music at our day-long concert, everyone
will enjoy
the myriad attractions provided by artists and artisans from various
regions
of France, as well as other French-speaking countries.
For more than ten years, Bastille Day on 60th Street has been
the largest
public celebration of the historic friendship between France and the
United States
commemorating France’s own Independence Day on July 14, 1789.
Shop the French-themed market stalls, try your luck at the raffle, and
stop by
the French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF) at 22 East 60th Street
for wine
and cheese tastings. Vive la France!
Entrance to Bastille Day on 60th Street is free and open to the public!
