Under the supervision of Dr. Nancy Durbin, Professor of French at Lindenwood University, students are trained to give tours in French of the Pulitzer's current exhibition, Portrait/Homage/Embodiment. This training culiminates in a series of French tours with area high school students. It is a rich experience for both the university and the high school students, as they learn to talk about something new in French, and have an opportunity to use their language skills. The high school students also get a chance to ask the university students about majoring in French and studying abroad.

While training for the tours, the Lindenwood students have compiled a substantial vocabulary list, as well as short descriptions of the works, in French. Groups that participate in the project will receive these materials, as well as the exhibit catalogue, well in advance of their visit so that they will have a chance to familiarize themselves with the works and expand their "champs de vocabulaire" before the tour.

The project will also include a Soirée française, open to all adult St. Louis area Francophiles and university students. The Lindenwood students will be on hand throughout the Pulitzer's galleries to engage guests in French about the works.
