To develop and support relationships between professionals in all creative fields, and to encourage collaborative projects between cultural and educational institutions. To combine the strengths of both the French and American systems of supporting the arts and education in one common initiative: French public support features long-term financial commitments and draws on FACEs partnership with the Cultural Services of the French Embassy American private support from partner foundations, corporate and individual giving which made possible by the independence and private nature of FACE and its administrative structure. false false 1802143 1362388 The French Dual Language Program, an initiative of the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and FACE Foundation, provides high-quality bilingual education to children in public schools across New York City. Currently 1,300 students are served by this program but the need is far greater with 22,000 children living in French-speaking homes with little or no access to education in French. In 2013, a campaign was launched to raise $ 2.8 million and reach 7,000 children within the next five years. Funding will go directly to develop new programs in underserved areas where many francophone families live and to bolster the existing programs. To date, $250,000 has been raised thanks to generous individuals, foundations, corporations and public institutions. These funds currently support 11 participating schools. A new middle & high school in Brooklyn is being added to the list as it will offer French dual language as part of its International Baccalaureate program, for free.tant donns Contemporary Art aims to strengthen ties between France and the U.S. in the field of contemporary art by fostering active collaboration and encouraging long-lasting partnerships between French visual artists, curators, and collectives and American curators and cultural institutions. The fund supports the discovery of emerging talents, while also sustaining interest in established artists. Furthermore, it has been instrumental in creating a network of curators from France and the U.S. Since its inception, tant donns has developed an international reputation by allocating over $3million to fund more than 300 projects and 19 curators. Over the past 20 years, the art world has profoundly evolved. tant donns seeks to embrace new practices and enable different approaches to creation in contemporary art, to include projects that draw on the visual arts, design, architecture, and performance. tant donns aims to support ambitious projects, with high priority given to coproductions, new commissions, and projects that can be developed across several cities in the U.S. To this end, and with the aim of introducing French visual artists whose works have rarely, if ever, been shown in the United States, the fund supports projects at three levels. Financial support is granted to American nonprofit institutions to organize exhibitions, installations, or research projects featuring French artists; a curatorial fellowship assists American curators, either independent or affiliated with institutions, who wish to conduct research in France; and a residency program supports French visual artists seeking to develop specific projects with American partners.FACE Contemporary Theater fosters innovative artistic collaborations and co-productions in theater, and contributes to a dynamic intercultural dialogue between France and the United States. It aims to encourage projects that push aesthetic boundaries and reflect the cultural and artistic diversity seen in theater today.Created in 1999, the program is developed by the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and FACE Foundation, with the support of the Florence Gould Foundation, Fondation CHANEL, Institut franais, the French Ministry of Culture, and private donors.FACE Contemporary Theater supports: The productions of contemporary playwrights, The residencies of directors and performers, The presentation and touring of French productions in the United States and American productions in France.These projects include multidisciplinary and devised theater, young audience theater productions, contemporary circus, puppetry, and street theater. The program has expanded beyond artists based in France and the United States to include projects by artists from Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East performing in the United States, as long as their work is co-produced by French cultural institutions. In this age of global mobility, the goal is to support artists with varied backgrounds and influences, in order to promote a multiplicity of voices and foster a rich intercultural dialogue. Each project is intended to reach a wide audience and to engage communities as well as act as a launching pad for the featured artists. 1802143 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false true true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 38 0 true 2 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 18 18 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false CA IL NY X Laurent Auffret 2124391439 972 Fifth Avenue New York NY 10075 Patrick Pagni Chairman 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Adrienne Halpern Secretary 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Laurence Haddad Treasurer 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Clemence Boissonnas Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rachel Boue-Widawsky Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nicole Bourgois Elliman Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Giovanna Calvino Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Joseph Carroll Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Charles Cohen Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Margaret Conklin Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elisabeth de Kergorlay Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Slawomir Krupa Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Alexandra Lauvaux Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Renaud de Lesquen Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jeanine Parisier Plottel Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Marc-Andre Poirier Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jane Ross Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bernard Manuel Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Laurent Auffret Executive Dir. 37.50 0.00 X 95000 0 7200 95000 7200 0 false false false 0 735596 1811086 2546682 0 2138 2138 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2548820 2138 1103287 1103287 0 259101 259101 0 102200 61320 40880 0 69463 41678 27785 0 7200 4320 2880 12378 7427 4951 0 21620 21620 0 0 0 0 97431 62306 35125 65541 65541 18533 2401 9679 6453 0 0 0 153143 149976 3167 0 0 0 0 0 3764 234 2118 1412 Production Expense 222836 222836 Postage and Shipping 2415 2002 413 0 2138912 1802143 252408 84361 254378 173293 2784432 2219048 639864 812635 0 0 0 0 0 15042 15536 0 0 0 0 0 0 3693716 3220512 43146 27261 2003539 1075659 2046685 1102920 X 42567 238039 1604464 1879553 1647031 2117592 3693716 3220512 X 409908 60653 X false true X true false X 3827258 1303203 1676772 2014687 2546682 11368602 0 36000 36000 18000 18000 18000 126000 3863258 1339203 1694772 2032687 2564682 11494602 6439465 5055137 5161 5461 2835 2386 2138 17981 0 0 11512583 0.43910 0.53360 X X 2566820 18000 18000 2548820 2548820 2156912 18000 18000 2138912 2138912 Part X : FIN48 Footnote FACE does not believe its financial statements include any material, uncertain tax positions.
