HolidayFest Food

Our tradition is to have a coffee, tea and cakes and cookies for everyone to enjoy at no cost or for a donation (suggested: $5/plate). We have our families and volunteers baking over 25 cakes to be able to do this. (If you would like to help us – please contact us soon.)

Small lunch: bread and a cup of sauerkraut soup or potato soup ($5) and hopefully a few Bratwuerstchen with Broetchen ($10). 

Art Table and Quiet Space
in Bishop Katherine Lounge

Join teachers Brittney and Cindy to create Holiday Cards and Window Decorations. For any age! Cost: donation

Music in Simpson Hall

We will have many musicians joining us. Come to hear classical music and German holiday songs.
