2022 Austrian Advent Celebration

After a long hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, more than 70 guests joined us for our traditional Austrian-style Advent celebration at the Arts Club of Washington. It was good to see many of our long-standing members as well as many guests who were new to the AACS. The event featured both Advent and Christmas music by our beloved Alpine Singers under the leadership of Carol Traxler as well as Gluehwein, Weihnachtskekse (Christmas cookies), and other seasonal goodies.
