1) In January 2003, The Heather and Thistle Society raised a larger than life bust of Robert Burns in the International Commemorative Sculpture Garden at Hermann Park to commemorate Roberts Burns and to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of its Society.  The project was totally funded by donations from members and friends of the Society. No corporate donations were solicited nor accepted, making this a true gift from the Scottish Community to our city.

Our local Burns Club invites you to join them at 12:00 PM Monday, January 28, 2019, at the Rose Garden, Hermann Park for a service celebrating the 260th anniversary of Robert Burns’s birth. Following the brief ceremony, the group will repair for lunch to the Red Lion Pub, 2316 S Shepherd Dr, Houston, TX 77019
