45th Annual Croatian Cultural Society of Minnesota Croatian Christmas Party

We are excited to host our annual Christmas gathering on Saturday, December 7th, 2024 starting with a social hour at 5:30pm. The event will be held at the Croatian Hall in South St Paul and our dinner will include some classic, holiday Croatian dishes including sarma, ham, BBQ lamb and various side dishes. We will have some light, traditional Croatian desserts to share as well. Wine, spirits and soft drinks are available for purchase at the bar; coffee is included with dinner.

Besides the wonderful dinner buffet and desserts, we will be bringing back the amazing accordionist Hank Thunander and there will be a brief program overview by Honorary Consul and CCSMN President Andrea Novak Neumann.

Donations: Our volunteers worked hard to keep our prices down with all the price increases on food this last year, it is our sincere hope that everyone can attend knowing this is a non-revenue generating event for our group. Our goal is to cover the costs and celebrate the 100+ years of Croatian heritage in the Twin Cities. We will also host a silent auction with baskets available for bidding during dinner to help defray some of the costs. As always, we are thankful for those of you that wish to offer donations if you are feeling generous that night, donations will be applied to our general fund to fulfill our mission of keeping Croatian heritage alive and to teach the great Minnesota community about all the beauty, bounty and history of Croatia.
