IVCLA Mixers & Receptions are the perfect opportunity for potential members to learn first hand how to become a Citizen Diplomat and for members to share Home Hospitality experiences, meet Board members, International Visitors and of course, to introduce friends and family to IVCLA! We look forward to seeing you at the next Mixer.

Thank you to all the Board Members and Citizen Diplomats who joined us for our May 2010 Long Beach Mixer at the new Avia Hotel welcoming Russian museum professionals. We would also like to thank the Avia providing delicious hors d'oeuvres!

Our Citizen Diplomat Mixer in March 2010 was held at Desert Rose Restaurant in Los Feliz Village. At the event we celebrated St. Patrick's Day, welcomed international visitors from Russia and recognized a very special Citizen Diplomat - Dick Dommes. Dick has been a volunteer in the IVCLA office for more than 25 years and has decided it is time to retire. We would like to thank all of our Citizen Diplomats who helped us honor his long-time outstanding service to IVCLA! More photos
