Upcoming Events

Dîner en Blanc will take over Washington’s public space for the first time this summer on Thursday, September 4, 2014. This très chic picnic, imported from Paris, is equal parts mystery tour, pop-up feast and je ne sais quoi. Over the course of the evening, the diners enhance the function and value of their city’s public space by participating in the unexpected. Hope to see you there!

Dogs invited! Balducci’s Food Lover’s Market invites you and your furry friend to a Wealth, Wags and Wine event at their Alexandria Market Location THIS Friday from 4:00 – 6:00pm. Enjoy an afternoon filled with free giveaways, music, gourmet dog treats, grilling and wine tasting!

New outdoor concerts will be presented in the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden as a prelude to the upcoming concert season. Inspired by the beloved summer tradition of Jazz in the Garden, concerts take place at noon and 1:00 p.m. on Sundays during the month of September.

Served from 11:00 am to 2:00 p.m., the tempting menu includes scrambled eggs with chives, breakfast pizza, granola and yogurt parfait, fresh fruit, mimosas, and more!
