Party Like It's 1869: Fall Fete at the Corcoran

1869 Society Fall Fete
SATURDAY: If you've ever walked through a museum and thought to yourself, "This place would be so much better if you added dancing and booze," fear not! The 1869 Society for young professionals has you covered.

Their annual Fall Fete at the Corcoran Gallery of Art is a place to see, be seen — and check out the gallery's beautiful "Sargent and the Sea" exhibit. There will be music, dancing and, most importantly, an open bar. In honor of the exhibit, the party is nautical themed. No land-lubbers allowed. We're hoping to spy one or two striped tuxedos.

Proceeds will benefit the Corcoran's ArtReach program, which provides free art education programs to needy communities in the area.

» Corcoran Gallery of Art, 500 17th St. NW; Sat., Oct. 24, 8 p.m., $90-$200; 202-639-1700. (Farragut West)
