The Cornell Club of Washington is pleased to host the Ivy Singles Happy Hour Fall Kick-Off! We invite you to join us at this charming historic landmark, the James Monroe House, just off Pennsylvania Avenue. Explore two floors of spacious rooms where monthly exhibits of paintings and photography line the walls. Relax with old friends and meet new ones. A good selection of appetizers will be served, and happy hour drink prices will be available for the duration of our party at the cash bar.
Pre-paid reservations: Online or send $40 check payable to Cornell Club of Washington to: Walk-ins are $45 at the door (cash or check). Please RSVP to spiekare@verizon.net if you're planning to pay at the door so we can order enough food for everyone. History of the club: Timothy Caldwell, a wealthy businessman from Philadelphia, decided in 1806 to build "the handsomest house in the Capital City." It later served as home for President James Monroe, ambassadors foreign and domestic, the founder of the National Weather Service, and the city's oldest club devoted to the arts. Inspired by London's Chelsea Arts Club and the National Arts Club in Manhattan, Washington artists created the Arts club in May 1916 and purchased the Monroe House as its home. It focused on painting, sculpture, music, and drama, and was the first club in the city to admit women as charter members.
