What about Jazz in The Garden on Fridays? I have not made it but I have heard good things. Last week was first one of the summer but the weather was pretty bad.
Yea that's the big event, but it's mostly a group activity. Get your social circle together and some bottles of wine and picnic under a tree for a few hours.
Unfortunately it's so damn humid in DC in the summers, it takes away from the fun of it.
As for Museum events, the Smithsonian used to have a young professionals membership called "Young Benefactors" and they did Happy hours. I went to a few and they were pretty decent. They shut it down though because of a budget crunch. I don't think too many members went from the $65 benefactors to the $150 Smithsonian associates after that though...
When did this Young Benefactors thing happen? What kind of crowds and how was the quality of chicks? Did they end it during the recent sequester crisis or before?
I joined in 2010 and they ended it in 2011... It had been going on for two decades... The quality of chicks was pretty decent since there was a membership fee and the special events also cost $50+ to go.
Sample HH pics here.
Ok looking at the pics that's definitely standard DC fare. The type of girls I would find at a free meetup.com event or something. That costs money? Are drinks included in the membership price? Otherwise, that's a ripoff.
I noticed that the HH was at Current, the Dupont bar. So it's not even at an actual museum.
The events moved around town. Some were at Museums, some were at normal bars or restaurants.
