First Friday

Just as the name suggests, this event is held on the first Friday of the month, except for July, August, and December.

In 2024 the City of Georgetown began its own First Friday event, which includes live music at Founder's Park in the months of September, October, and November. So, we will be moving this event to another date in the month, and will cancel the event for September 2024. Check back here for updated information.

It is both a social and educational event. Held at Grace Heritage Center (GHC), doors open at 5:30 for a brief social with beverages and snacks. At 6:00pm, there is a 30 to 45 minute presentation by a PG member or guest speaker. Topics are ones of interest to PG, such as how to use Sanborn maps and other tools to research properties in Georgetown; the Chisholm Trail organization; who was George Washington Glascock, etc. This event is open to the public and PG members.

Second Saturday

PG opens Grace Heritage Center every second Saturday from 9am to 5pm. This is the same weekend Downtown Georgetown Association (DGA) holds Market Days. Main Street is closed between 7th and 9th Street, and 7th Street is closed between Main and Austin Avenue. We gets hundreds of visitors and the bell rings non-stop!

Sun City non-profit Fair

This annual event is held in Sun City's Ballroom. Non-profits from all over Georgetown meet with people who want to learn more about what they do and the volunteer opportunities they offer.
