Houston, TX – Families in southeast Houston can enjoy a festive start to the holiday season today as Starbucks and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office host a special “Pictures with Santa” event from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The free celebration is designed to bring the community together with holiday treats, children’s activities, and photos with Santa Claus.
According to the HCSO Community Engagement Division, the event takes place at 7013 Gulf Fwy, Houston, TX 77087, where families can stop in for complimentary hot chocolate, cookies, crafts, prizes, and Christmas music. Deputies and community engagement officers will be on-site throughout the morning to greet families and participate in the festivities.
The HCSO says the partnership with Starbucks is part of its ongoing outreach to strengthen community relationships during the holiday season. Families can snap a free Santa photo, enjoy seasonal drinks, and participate in giveaways while supplies last.

The event is open to residents across Houston, Harris County, and surrounding communities, offering families an accessible and relaxed way to celebrate the holiday season close to home. With festive decorations, Christmas-themed activities, and appearances from HCSO personnel, the gathering aims to spread holiday cheer and provide children with a memorable seasonal experience.
