Monthly Events
Luncheons
Every month, members gather for a midday meal at an interesting restaurant in Seville. We arrange a special set-price menu for the lunch, with all dietary needs covered. This popular event is a great way to keep in regular touch with other members, and to discover new restaurants in Seville – recently we’ve tried Spanish, Lebanese and Japanese cuisine.
Breakfast Club
Members get together informally at a local café once a month, to enjoy a good chat over coffee or tea and breakfast. This is a casual drop-in event – you can just have a quick coffee, or stay for longer, depending on your preference and availability.
Book Club
Each month members meet to discuss the current book club selection, whether contemporary fiction or a classic, and how it relates to our lives. All members are invited to attend, even if they haven’t read the book.
Family Picnics
At these monthly picnics, AWC families have a chance to socialize together in a relaxed outdoor environment – both adults and kids. Children often bring their own bikes, scooters and footballs to play with, while younger ones just enjoy running about in the park.
Games Night
Our monthly get-together at a local bar features board games, tapas, drinks, and lots of laughs. Play traditional games, or bring along a new one to try!
Movie Night
AWC members meet once a month to see a movie in English. Then we usually go out for tapas together to compare notes and talk about our impressions of the film.
Open Club / Craft Beer Night
New to Seville? At these friendly evening get togethers, recent arrivals to Seville can meet members who have lived in the city for some years, get practical advice, support and information, while enjoying great tapas and drinks in convivial company.
Annual Events
September Coffee Morning and Book Sale
These are our two most important and most well-attended events of the year – they are great opportunities to catch up with old friends and to meet new members. Proceeds from the Club’s Book Sale help support our two charities.
Children’s Parties – Halloween, Christmas and Easter
Do you have children? We organize fun parties for families at Halloween and Christmas, and an Easter egg hunt in spring. Children love the handicrafts, songs, games and competitions, as well as the tasty homemade cakes and cookies provided by parents.
Holiday Dinners and Parties – Thanksgiving and Christmas
We organize dinners with traditional menus to celebrate the main holidays, Thanksgiving and Christmas, at restaurants around Seville. Set price menus are offered, and dietary needs are accommodated. Come and join in our special seasonal celebrations!
Cultural Events and Other Activities
Cultural Events
We have an impressive program of tours and visits, including places normally closed to public, tours not generally available, and guided visits exclusively for club members. We organize excursions to current exhibitions, museums, monuments in Seville, take part in local cultural activities, offer talks by members and much more. Topics of recent talks include NASA, homeopathy, and US taxes!
Hikes and Walks
The Club organizes occasional hikes and walks around town and the countryside. They are enjoyed by members, family, and friends.
And More…
Each year, members enjoy a variety of other activities including artisan workshops, cooking classes, and visits to other sites such as an olive oil factory, sherry bodegas, or the factory where Seville’s famous Ines Rosales tortas are made.
Charity
Giving back to our community is an integral part of the American Women’s Club of Seville, starting with half of our membership dues being allocated to the Club’s charity fund currently for the benefit of Sonrisa de un Niño and Vivir Compartiendo. The Club also organizes activities for members to donate time, talent, and treasure, including support at local nonprofits, donating specific items to care homes or children’s groups, and social fundraisers like raffles, cooking classes, and holiday events.
