Upcoming Events

September 11 - Heaven Hill Distillers Inc.: With more than 1,800 whiskeys on the wall, Jack Rose encourages whiskey exploration, always leading guests through varieties of whisk(e)y, scotch, and this month's featured spirit, bourbon. Every Thursday throughout September, beginning September 4, Jack Rose will showcase a different distillery, ranging from the makers of cult-favorite Willett, to Frankfort, KY's Buffalo Trace Distillery, makers of the uber-rare and in-demand Pappy Van Winkle. Guests can enjoy special pricing on several labels from each distillery, distillery-themed flights, and a special bourbon-centric menu of bites and sweets from Executive Chef Russell Jones.



Thursday kicks off the 11 day DC Short Film Festival. This is the largest short film festival on the east coast. Five different locations across the District and Fairfax, VA will be showing 135 films from 25 countries. For film schedules and tickets, parties and filmmaker Q&A sessions go to DCshorts.com.

District Doughnut is opening its first store on Barracks Row, Capitol Hill this Friday, September 12, 2014.

New outdoor concerts will be presented in the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden as a prelude to the upcoming concert season.

Watch summer turn to fall while enjoying live music and a delicious brunch menu at the Pavilion Café. 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! On September 14, Ricardo Marlow and Ensemble will entertain with Flamenco music and dance.

Monday, September 15: Cheese paired with wine? A no-brainer. But you may not think to pair cheese with beer. Sona Creamery is about to change your mind with their DC Brau Brewing Company beer dinner on Monday, September 15. The Sona team is prepared to pair cheese with DC Brau favorites in new and unexpected ways. The event is $65 per person (including tax and gratuity).
