Community Calendar

The Kind House Ukraine Bakery in Amarillo, a special volunteer-run non-profit bakery located at 4715 S Western St., will play host to its annual community dinner to help raise funds for humanitarian aid for Ukraine.

The dinner will take place in the Vermillion Gallery at Arts in the Sunset from 6 to 8 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 11. You will hear stories about what Ukrainians are facing right now and be a part of making a positive impact.

100% of the evening's proceeds will go directly toward coal, medicine, food and rescue operations. EVERY BITE SAVES A LIFE!

The bakery is open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays. Soup and sandwiches for lunch are served from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Every loaf of sourdough bread, box of cinnamon rolls, and dozen custom cupcakes we sell goes directly toward humanitarian aid for families living through the war in Ukraine. You get something delicious. They get a lifeline.

BYO book (any format) to our Silent Book Club for one or two reading sessions the second Wednesday of every month! They start at 4:30 and 5:30 p.m.

It's a great way to chat about what you're currently reading, learn what others are reading, and discover new books and friends who read!

We encourage participants to choose a colored tag to indicate how much (or little) they'd prefer to talk with others:

Green = talk to me anytime
Yellow = talk to me during breaks
Red = don't talk to me, I'm here to read!

We'll read silently together for 45 minutes and then break for discussion and snacks for 15 minutes. There will be 2 rounds of reading starting at 4:30 and 5:30. Come for one or stay for both!

Light snacks and beverages available for purchase, and our free tea and water station is always available.
