Holiday Coffee and Cake Social
Sunday, December 16, 3-6pm
MAISON DES ASSOCIATIONS
72-74 RUE ROYALE
59000 LILLE

To start the holiday season in the American tradition, you are invited with your family to the beautiful Maison des Associations in Lille on Sunday afternoon.

There will be caroling and crafts/coloring and a movie for children! There is an outside courtyard area for children to play and we request that if you are bringing children, to bring something for them to play with outside if they so desire and the weather is good.

There will be a “white elephant” gift exchange for those who wish to participate (adults only). A “white elephant” gift exchange is where you bring in a goofy/silly/ old gift that you might have in your basement or sitting around somewhere unused. You can also purchase something, as long as the gift value is under 10 euros. For every adult wishing to play, bring the gift, wrapped, and we will have a fun time passing them around in a lottery type fashion. You never know what you might take home! (not mandatory… only if you want to participate).

We will all enjoy a cup of hot cider, a glass of wine, or a slice of cake.

Please bring a softdrink drink and your favorite holiday dessert to share.

Participation Cost

Free for children 12 and under.

Contact Stephanie Brown for reservation.
