Here is a listing of some of our many activities:

  Artist Group

We meet to work on our projects in many media and to support and inspire each other.

  Children's Playgroups (English-speaking)

Our playgroups offer the opportunity for children six months and up to play together in English. It is also a great place for Moms of all nationalities to socialize!

  Coffee and Conversation

Come join us twice a month in a relaxing atmosphere with creative conversation and refreshing drinks to stimulate thoughts and spirits.

  Currents Magazine

Our magazine, which is included with membership, features tips and information as well as personal stories and articles of interest to our members. The proofreaders meet twice a month to proof submissions style, grammar and spelling, and to check that the layout is accurate just prior to publishing. Even if you can't spell, we can use your expertise to check for accuracy.

  Family Activities

We encourage family-oriented activities and support several English-language playgroups.

  FAWCO

Our club is a member of the Federation of Women's Clubs Overseas. We are actively involved in voting drives for ex-patriates, fundraising for international charities, expanding our horizons in learning about the issues of the world, and much more.

  Film Review Group

We attend the free press showings of films slated to open in Hamburg weeks later. With the help of press packets, we write reviews for Currents Magazine and the AWCH website. Amateurs and professionals are all welcome. We communicate via email or fax. Films are almost daily, mornings and early afternoons, and we attend as we have time.

  Guardian Angels

Do you need help? Our Guardian Angels are the ones to call. We can help you find the markets, schools, hairdressers, doctors, dentists, how to travel by bus and trains. We are there to listen to your woes and to meet with you and have a chat over coffee. We have all been in the position of being the "new" person in town so we are ready and willing to help you. We are located in several of the neighborhoods all over the city.

  Landesfrauenrat

Our club is a member of this association of women's clubs in Hamburg.

  Mixed Doubles

Mixed Doubles is just what the name suggests: couples who come from two different nationalities, living in Germany. Pairs have found they share many of the same issues that come from the merging of two cultures, whether in raising children, furnishing an apartment, career issues, shopping, entertaining, in-laws, etc. Join us and share your stories!

  Museum Review Group

We attend press conferences before the public openings of exhibits at Hamburg's Museums, and write reviews in our club magazine, Currents.

  Restaurant Reviews

We write reviews of Hamburg's restaurants for Currents Magazine, so you'll know where to go (and where to avoid).

  Tours, Workshops, Hikes and Talks

We explore Hamburg and surrounding areas and learn from the experience and knowledge of our members. We have toured Berlin and the Lübeck Christmas markets. Our members have offered talks on nutrition, antiques, medieval art and shopping.

  Webteam

Join us in making this a useful website for "visitors", and learn to be a webwoman yourself. No experience necessary, just a willingness to make this the best website ever!
