It's coming. You either dig it or dread it. Valentine's Day. If you're single it probably makes you bitter. If you're attached it likely makes you anxious. How can anyone possibly plan anything that lives up to the weighty expectations this annual ritual of chocolates and little, fat cherubs carries?
Dare I say, "we did!"? Dare I say, "we have just the solution for all the single ladies (and gents) and couples alike!"?
I dare.
We're taking back the night February 14 with Handi-hour at the Renwick Gallery. As some of you may already know, Handi-hour combines happy hour with handmade, offering you the chance to fashion your own masterpieces in an actual craft gallery while sipping craft beer and listening to live music. Given the holiday, we're planning some extra special activities for folks who both embrace and eschew the thought of Cupid's arrow.
Details are below. We certainly hope you'll join us.
