Coucou Events
French Cultural
Events in Los Angeles
Come and join our fun, culturally-savvy events throughout the year – art shows, film screenings, wine tastings and everything in between!
While the backyard parties we organized in our former Williamsburg space in Brooklyn were legendary, we plan to continue the tradition in our new L.A space! We celebrate our French cultural heritage by hosting parties for such annual events as Bastille Day and Mardi Gras, but sometimes Coucou parties are just an excuse to get together and meet classmates, teachers and students of other levels in a casual setting!
Upcoming Coucou Events:

Book Club – Le Petit Prince
Join us for the first edition of the Coucou book club!
Introducing one of France’s most famous tales : “Le Petit Prince” by Antoine de Saint Exupéry.
Hosted by our teacher Cynthia, the Coucou Book Club will take place over 4 Saturdays for 1.5 hour.
In each session, we will take a closer look at some famous characters, passages and quotes. This masterpiece creates deep philosophical refections for kids as well as for adults which we will approach and discuss in French.
Join us by the bookshelves of the school around a glass of wine to get a better understanding of this famous French little prince.
The book club will run over the course of 4 Saturday Sessions from March 14th to April 4th from 4pm to 6pm.
