Join us for a Christmas carol celebration, featuring stories behind the music and lyrics, inspiring video performances, and visual art to enhance your holiday season. As Sir David Willcocks said, "In our technological age, the simple pleasure of communal singing at Christmas has endured, and carol music, 'the ancient unalterable music of the people' still brings cheer.

"Carols for Christmas I," last December, was a much-enjoyed Osher class. Join us for "Carols for Christmas II," as we explore a new selection of carols from the Sir David Wilcox collection and a sampling of carols from throughout the world. Since we'll work up an appetite singing, we'll each decorate a dozen Christmas cookies with the help of a pro pastry chef. (We won't tell Santa if they don't all make it home.) Bring your friends and family to create a new holiday tradition!
