You can have a little piece of France in the heart of Dallas! Come enjoy French-styled wines from Calais Winery and lovely foods to compliment them as you learn the key elements of entertaining as the French do. Pierre Deux is graciously hosting the event in their Design District setting, as Dr. Elizabeth New, President and Founder of French Affaires, will give a talk on table settings and entertaining, including a tour of tables from France.

Pierre Deux will be offering a 20% shopping discount for patrons that day. In addition, they will also be donating 10% of the proceeds from the event to the Texan French Alliance for the Arts newly formed Dallas chapter. Oui oui!
