Events are at the heart of the French-American Heritage Foundation of Minnesota (FAHF). Each year, we host community gatherings, cultural celebrations, and educational programs that bring our shared history to life.
From our annual fur trade presentations to our celebration of Bastille Day, FAHF events honor the traditions of French-speaking people who helped shape Minnesota while creating space for new generations to connect with this heritage.
