The World Affairs Council of Greater Houston invites you to join them for their International Gala, where Houston’s global community comes together for an evening of diplomacy, culture, and connection. This highly anticipated event promises to be an unforgettable celebration of our city’s international ties and commitment to fostering global engagement.
This year’s French-inspired gala is a tribute to Valérie Baraban, Consul General of France, and Dean of the Consular Corps of Houston, celebrating her remarkable leadership and enduring contributions to our city before her return to Paris. Under her guidance, Houston’s international engagement has flourished, strengthening ties between our region and the world.
Honoring Valérie’s influence, the gala will transform Houston into the ‘City of Lights,’ featuring an elegant multi-course French culinary experience, mesmerizing live music, and skilled caricature artists creating personalized keepsakes. The event provides a rare opportunity to connect with Houston’s top diplomatic, business, and industry leaders, all while supporting educational initiatives that cultivate international understanding for the next generation.
