Since 1996, the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and CUNY TV have produced together one of the few French-speaking programs to appear on American television: Canapé.
Canapé is the only program devoted to French-speaking cultural events in New York and the United States. This monthly half-hour show includes film releases, book translations, exhibitions, festivals, ballets, concerts and theater productions.
Canapé is seen on the third Thursday of the month in a French-only version and repeated the fourth Thursday of the month in an English-subtitled version.
