The public is invited. Admission is free.
Titled "En sortant de l'école" ("Upon Leaving School") and presented in French, the event will feature poems, skits, and musical and dance performances, as well as excerpts from plays by Moliere and Ionesco. All of the presentations relate to schools, students and their teachers in France.
