Welcome to the American Womens’ Group of Languedoc-Roussillon,
based in Montpellier, the city where the sun never sets.

Our club logo shows the pink flamingo, one of the many birds that migrate to the South of France. The flamingoes that can be seen from the aircraft as it approaches Montpellier airport from the Mediterranean captivate both first-time and regularly-returning visitors to our city.

Founded in 1986, AWG of Languedoc-Roussillon strives to promote friendship and share the American language and customs in our community. While the majority of our membership is made up of American women who live permanently in France, we also have many Anglophone members (British, Australian, Canadian, French) who enjoy the camaraderie and friendships within our group.

Our members’ stable lifestyle is reflected in our monthly activities and fundraisers. Our club activities include a Book Club, Bible Study, Children’s Group, Tours & Outings, Garden Club, and a Bar Night. Bar Night is a new addition to our monthly activities. It is attracting members who live and/or work downtown to get together for a drink and catch-up on club news. New and old members continually enjoy our club’s outings as a means to sightsee and discover our beautiful region.

AWG is an enthusiastic member of FAWCO, the Federation of American Women’s Clubs Overseas.

Our members fervently supported the French World Rugby Cup Games in 2007, by volunteering their time and attending the matches. The United States Ambassador to France took the time before the American vs. South Africa match to meet with our group.

Thank you for visiting our website, and do give us your contact details
if you would like to learn more about us.

Sincerely,

The Board of The American Women's Group
of Languedoc-Roussillon
