"Alliance Française was founded in Paris, France in 1883 by Louis Pasteur, Ferdinand de Lesseps and Jules Verne and established in Toronto since 1902. Alliance Française Toronto embodies the modern values of humanism and a respect for linguistic and cultural diversity." *
The Alliance Francaise is in over 130 countries worldwide and the Toronto division approached our agency because of our unique cross-cultural experience. It needed a new bilingual brochure to explain it's main services and postioning - it's a place where you can take french courses, with the added benefit with a full cultural program including an in-house gallery and theatre which celebrates music, art, film etc. The previous year's brochure was well...just that – a brochure. We decided to highlight their content in an editorial magazine-style which would not only encourage people to pick it up, read it, but also to keep it. This included a full cultural program which was divided into 5 themes, an overview of their education services as well as a calendar of cultural events that folded out from the back cover so that it could always be on hand. Overall a huge success at their publicized cultural season launch.
