Theatricum Sing-Along. Gather ’round for a traditional carol sing-along live from the Theatricum Botanicum theater. This free event also features the screening of a rare holiday interview with Theatricum Founder Will Geer. Audience members who make a donation will receive access to a radio play performance by Theatricum company members of Leo Tolstoy’s “What Men Live By.” This is a great opportunity to come together for the holidays without leaving home and supporting one of Topanga’s most cherished organizations. https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?show=119094

Sages Annual Holiday Dinner. Every year the Canyon Sages come together for a communal holiday meal that is one of the highlights of the season. The community event has been canceled due to the coronavirus crisis, but the festive meal will still be prepared for Sages to enjoy at home.

The dinner will be prepared by Kristina Rocco-Levy at Rocco’s Cucina in Pacific Palisades, with luscious desserts made by Karen Dannenbaum. Meals will be delivered on December 23 by Topanga Community Center volunteers. The event is made possible by support from TCC, support from Sotheby’s Real Estate, and the many volunteers and patrons who have given their  time and financial support during this challenging time. 

“We won’t be seeing you in person this year, but you are in our hearts and thoughts. Wishing you a happy holiday season, and may we all be able to see each other again in 2021!”
