OUR CULTURAL EVENTS:
Lawn Program The yearly Lawn program is held in July or August. The Independence Day for Argentina is on July 9th.
The entertainment for this occasion is provided by some professional Tango and Folklore dancers. They show that Tango dancing is not just a social form of dance, but an art that requires talent and training. Talented members of the house contribute to the fun by displaying their folklore dancing and playing music on the piano, guitar and flute.
Foods served For the Lawn Program, the Ethnic Food Fair and the December Holidays you will find Italian Sausage Sandwiches, Empanadas (meat, onion and eggs in a turnover), Flan, cookies and cakes. Lemonade is served as a cool refreshment.
Dinner Social Once a month a Dinner Social is programmed in the Hall of Nations. The time is from 5:00 pm to 10:00 pm, besides dinner they will show Argentinean movies.
Usually on those dinner socials we serve typical Argentinean food such as Locro, Empanadas, Asado, Mate, Wines, Flan and Alfajores, to name a few.
Christmas Party In December there is a Christmas Party for the entire families. Time and place vary and are announced in advance. Special traditional holiday foods are served. The Queens and Princesses dance and sing with the children.
