French Heritage Society

English Version

French Heritage Society (FHS) was founded in 1982 to help preserve the architectural patrimony of France and the French legacy in America.
French Heritage Society fulfills its mission in both countries by providing restoration grants; educational programs and exchanges; cultural travel opportunities; commemoration of events that have marked French-American history; and emergency intervention in response to natural disasters.
There are currently 15 chapters with approximately 2000 members. The first chapter, in Paris, was followed by chapters in Arizona, Atlanta, Boston, Cleveland, Dallas, New Orleans, New York, North Carolina, Northern California, Palm Beach, Philadelphia, Santa Barbara, Southern California, Ste. Genevieve, and Washington. Each chapter acts independently to organize social activities relating to French culture.
The members are like-minded individuals who share a love of France, French culture, and the pleasures of “l’art de vivre,” as well as a deep commitment to historic preservation. Members attend activities organized by their local Chapter and are welcomed at those held in other cities. They also receive invitations to participate in cultural trips and in Gala Anniversary festivities in magnificent settings, such as the Châteaux de Versailles, Villandry, Chenonceau, and Vaux-le-Vicomte.
French Heritage Society is an American not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, charitable organization, and is assisted by meaningful support from its membership and partnerships.
The annual fee varies with your statut. The membership fee is $250 per year.
