LEWISTON — The Franco-American Collection at the University of Southern Maine’s Lewiston-Auburn College invites the public to participate in a French sing-along session at 1:15 p.m. Friday, March 15, at USM LAC.

The session will consist of one hour of traditional French and French-Canadian songs. Words to all the songs are provided, so even those whose French is only “assez bien” are welcome. The music and atmosphere of friendship are maintained by an enthusiastic and talented group of community singers and musicians.

The Franco-American Collection preserves and promotes Maine’s Franco-American history and heritage through its archive at USM LAC, and activities in the community.

In case of bad weather, the event will be postponed until Friday, March 22, at the same time and location. For information on weather cancellations, call USM LAC’s stormline at 207-753-6595 on the day of the event.

The event will take place in room 170 of USM’s Lewiston-Auburn College. The campus is at 51 Westminster St. The event is free; no tickets or reservations necessary. For more information, contact USM’s Franco-American Collection at 753-6545 or [email protected].
