This free to attend 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.

The first 50 to RSVP will get in.

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 a brand new entrance dedicated solely to The Commentary.

The Commentary is attached to the Westin hotel, and complimentary hotel parking is available in the hotel garage. After parking, simply go to the hotel front desk, say you are there for the social, and ask to have your parking ticket validated.

This free social is hosted by Go Gay DC, which is Washington DC's LGBTQ+ community hub focused on friendship, leadership, and service. For more fun events like this, visit [https://www.meetup.com/GoGayDC](https://www.meetup.com/GoGayDC)

Casual attire is fine. The happy hour specials are listed at [https://thecommentaryarl.com/menus/](https://thecommentaryarl.com/menus/)

You are welcome regardless of where you live. Guests from DC, Maryland, and Virginia often attend. If you are taking the Metro, the Ballston stop is only two blocks from the Westin. The South Elevator exit is closest.

Feel free to invite all your friends on Facebook! [https://fb.me/e/2lT5WkNNX](https://fb.me/e/2lT5WkNNX)

We hope you can make it! You may arrive at any time that's convenient for you.

If you wish to dine there, the menu is All American eatery infusing East Coast ingredients with a West Coast flair. Of course the staff still will be fabulous. The Commentary is graciously offering 15 percent off your main course entree if you dine before, during or following the event and tell the waiter that you are with the Go Gay DC group and want the discount. The menu is at [https://thecommentaryarl.com/menus/](https://thecommentaryarl.com/menus/)

This event is a safe, inclusive space for everyone under the rainbow. This event is for all ages. Remember to bring your ID, as everyone who wishes to drink alcohol is carded of course.

If you haven't been fully vaccinated, have a cough, runny or stuffy nose, fatigue, sore throat, or headache, please just stay home. You can find a COVID-19 vaccine near you by searching on [https://vaccines.gov](https://vaccines.gov).
