SUMMARY

On October 3, at the Residence of France, it was our great pleasure to thank those who have helped us tell our French-American story and celebrate milestone moments such as Paris 2024.

We also toasted the French government’s relaunch of the #MakeItIconic campaign, which highlights the endless possibilities you have when you Choose France. This campaign is the common thread that ties together all the projects we undertake at the Embassy – from hosting conversations about France’s Presidency of the EU Council to bringing in astronauts to talk about their love for Saint-Exupéry's Little Prince and to exploring the legacy of the Marquis de Lafayette.

The phrase #MakeItIconic encapsulates the French spirit and its multifaceted, infinite, boundless potential for boldness, innovation and creativity. It's a spirit that you can tap into as well, because in France we believe in standing out—and we know you do too.
