Open House helps its members organize activities and Interest Groups that address members’ needs and interests. All members are encouraged to get involved! Why not join an Interest Group, help organize an event or party or even propose and lead a new Interest Group? As a volunteer organization, Open House depends on its members to help it flourish, so please get involved today!

Below you will find a description of our current Interest Groups and the contact information for each group. Our Interest Groups cover a wide area of interests, hobbies, and activities. Some meet regularly each week or month and some hold events seasonally. No matter which group suits your interests, you are sure to find a fun and diverse group of people who all speak English and enjoy  life in the beautiful French Alps!

Members are notified via the Facebook page!

GROUPS

Café Français:

   

The Café Français group meets on Fridays from 10am-12 pm. This group is aimed at any level of the French language and for anyone wanting to practice speaking the language.

“It’s Friday!”

                              

A fun filled Friday evening meet up at the local watering hole, a chance to unwind before the weekend!

Coffee Chat:

This informal group meets every Tuesday morning from 10:00 am -12:00 pm and it is a place to meet other Open House members and board members who are often in attendance.

Stitch & Chat:

                  

This group is all about sharing our passion for needlework (sewing, knitting, mending, embroidery, cross-stitch, crotchet, etc), sharing our homes, host responsibilities and conversations. Bring your latest needlework project and let’s share our knowledge and enjoy an informal coffee and chat!

Lunch & Dinner Meet-Up:

                  

This group meets every month to discover local restaurants and catch up on what is happening with the  other members of our community. All restaurant suggestions are welcome.

Wine Nights:

                     

Members taste bottles of wine selected by our own sommelier from different parts of the world and a potluck dinner.  It’s a great night getting to know people enjoying food and wine.

Book Club:

The Open House Book Group meets once a month. This year, it included a group of 5 to 7 regular members. It consists of a discussion about a pre-selected book in English but selected from various international authors. The purpose of this group is to be able to get different views and perceptions about the book seen by the different members’ cultural background. The choice of books can be either fiction or nonfiction.

Tots Playgroup:

We are currently in search of volunteers to run this group. Please use the contact form if interested.
