The French Heritage Corridor’s 2026 Annual Conference:

Digging to Discover: Our Common Roots and Our Potential to Flourish in the French Heritage Corridor

This annual conference gives us the opportunity to connect our presentations and round-table conversations to the places themselves by visiting sites within the French Heritage Corridor together.

The French Heritage Corridor’s annual conference will take place May 29–30 in l’Étoile du Nord—otherwise known as Minnesota. Join us in the Twin Cities for a full-day conference followed by a day of site visits that deepen our understanding of Minnesota’s French heritage. Together, we’ll connect presentations and roundtable conversations to the places themselves by visiting sites throughout the French Heritage Corridor. In the warmth of community, we share our triumphs, identify opportunities for mutual support, build connections, and, of course, have some fun along the way.

Date: May 29 - 30

Place: Minneapolis - Saint Paul (Minnesota)
