What is a Sociable?

At the Festival you will have the opportunity to reserve your spot for one or more Sociables. Some are small gatherings – for example, a guided tour for 6 people of Bayou Bend, the Museum of Fine Arts Houston’s house museum for American decorative arts and paintings. Some are large gatherings – for example, 4-weeks of dance lessons (social dance, cha-cha, and waltz) for 45 people at the Rice Village Campus Parish Hall. New Sociables this year include Challah Baking, a Boat Tour of Buffalo Bayou, a parent-child Christmas Shopping trip to the Memorial Area Ministries Resale Shop, Frolicking with Goats at a unique Beer Garden, a Tai Chi lesson, and a Fondue Party in a high rise overlooking downtown. Plus many more!!!

All Sociables are offered by CtK members who plan the event and cover all costs. When you sign up for a Sociable, you make a financial contribution to attend. Admission prices vary from $10 to $150. 100% of the funds generated will be donated to our congregation’s community partners.
