OPEN TO ENGLISH-SPEAKING WOMEN OF ALL NATIONALITIES
Welcome to the AWC!
A Message from the President:
We hope that you are enjoying the multitude of activities offered by this year’s American Women’s Club. Now is the time of year for volunteers to step up to make sure our Club rolls forward next year. We need ladies who would like to get more involved. Ladies who would like to be more active. Ladies who would like to make new friends. If you would like to be one of these ladies, please contact Mary Fasal at mary_fasal@hotmail.com or Christie Snowdon at christiesnowdon@telefonica.net.
Dear Members,
The American Women’s Club of Seville is what our members want it to be! We are an organization of ladies who generously donate our time and talents to club events and activities, in an atmosphere of teamwork —and the bonds of friendship.
The AWC is for English-speaking women of all nationalities. Our club is based on three pillars: social, cultural, and charitable. During the more than sixty years of the AWC Seville’s existence, our club has grown and changed, as has the diversity of its members.
Our club gathers for monthly luncheons as a long-standing tradition. We also have a strong book club and craft group who meet monthly. We enjoy Halloween, Christmas, Easter parties, and Thanksgiving. Our children play together, while speaking in English and learning about other cultures. We get together for mountain walks, tapa nights, workshops, wine tasting, cultural tours of Seville—and the list goes on. Members can also donate their time and efforts to three local charities: Sonrisa de un Niño, Las Hermanitas de los Pobres, and El Pozo Santo.
We welcome you and invite you to join us, by coming to an activity or event and getting to know us. We would like to meet you! There is something for everyone at the AWC Seville!
Christie Snowdon
AWC Seville President
Visitors, please contact us at awcseville@gmail.com—we would love to have you join us!
Happy 60 years, AWC!
The American Women’s Club was founded in 1956 and continues to enrich the lives of English-speaking women here in Sevilla. We celebrated the Club’s anniversary at our April luncheon, where photos and documents from parts of AWC’s history were compiled by Joanne Waage for us to see. Christie Snowdon has now contributed some newsletters from past years, which we are now posting on the website. If you have material from AWC’s history that you would like to add to the archive, contact us at awcseville@gmail.com, with the subject “Archive”.
