so we have an accurate guest count. The first 100 to RSVP will get in. This signature social event happens monthly and brings together LGBTQ+ folk from all over the DMV and the world! Better yet, there is no cover.
This fun social event is ideal for making new friends, professional networking, idea-sharing, and community building. Or just unwind and enjoy the extended happy hour specials.
Please join us and see all the wonderful new amenities at The Commentary and catch up with each other.
The Commentary is all about coming together and connecting in conversation and shared experiences.
You can still enter from the hotel side; but, you will see an entrance dedicated solely to The Commentary.
The Commentary is attached to the Westin hotel.
