Celebrations and Entertainment Closer to Home

Keep your calendar (and cup) full with Claridge Court’s versatile social calendar and the nearby cities full of attractions and amenities. There are plenty of opportunities to learn, grow, celebrate, and be entertained. Enjoy a live performance by your favorite touring musician or take ballroom dance lessons at a local studio. Spend autumn leaf-peeping, searching for the best coffee and fall-themed pastries at local cafes, and prepping for holiday fun. In the spring, bask in nature, pick berries at the local berry patch, and admire local art at the Prairie Village Art Walk.

I loved my house… But when we saw Claridge Court, it was apparent we were moving. And after a week I thought, why did I ever worry about this? It was the best decision I ever made. I have absolutely zero regrets.
