Founded more than 150 years ago, the Society is the steward of the German Haus – a 17,000 square foot historic building in a park-like setting which includes a lovely lobby, two meeting halls, and a second story where our German language program is located. The Haus is a hub for inclusive social and community events and has a significant endowment and budget. The organization’s signature cultural events, such as Oktoberfest and the December Christmas Market, draw thousands of people. One of our long-standing programs is an active and successful Language Program that enrolls over one hundred students every year.
