Notre-Dame de Paris: Then and Now
Date: Thursday, January 18, 2024
Time: 6–8pm
Location: The Wolfsonian–FIU @ 1001 Washington Avenue
Travel through time as Alliance Française Miami Metro vice president Russell Kelley and Friends of Notre-Dame de Paris president Michel Picaud examine the grand history of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris. Covering the first stone laid in 1163 through the ongoing restoration work since the structure's catastrophic 2019 fire, this exploration of French Gothic architecture will offer a comprehensive look at the cathedral's stylistic evolution over the centuries. Often serving as the backdrop for significant historical events, Notre-Dame is working toward its own momentous occasion with a reopening slated for 2024. Drop in early for a pre-talk reception (6pm) and enjoy a guided tour (6:15pm).
Presented in partnership with Alliance Française Miami Metro and Friends of Notre-Dame de Paris.
