Get Out! An Outdoor Thing on Sat (Tree Lighting) & An Indoor Thing on Sun (Literary Launch)

Both FREE!

Why wait till after Thanksgiving to light the TREE! Why not do it while your Thanksgiving guests are here? After all, the holiday markets are open and the gift-buying season has begun! It's especially good for families that are trading off visits to families/in-laws in different cities!

Kick off the season with the THIRD ANNUAL TREE LIGHTING at City Ridge in Tenleytown:

Saturday, November 23, 2024 from 4 - 8 PM

City Ridge, 20 Ridge Square NW

It's that time of year again for our holiday tradition. Join us for a fun filled evening at City Ridge throughout the neighborhood.

Then on Sunday, November 24, attend the launch of the region's newest literary review:

The MID-ATLANTIC LITERARY REVIEW

LAUNCH READING

Sunday, November 24, 2 - 4 PM

MLK Library, 901 G St NW

Join the contributors and editors of the Mid-Atlantic Review 2024 for a launch reading Sunday, November 24th, 2:00-3:30pm at the MLK Library in downtown D.C. Publication of The Mid-Atlantic Review 2024 was made possible by individual donors to Day Eight and support from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and Mayor Muriel Bowser's Office of AAPI Affairs.

During this event contributors will read from the magazine.

This is an in-person event, free and open to all, that will take place at the MLK Library, 901 G St NW, Room 401-A. Space is limited and advanced registration is requested. Several modes of public transportation are easily accessible to the library. Day Eight is happy to provide translation or ASL services and we ask that those requests be mad at least one week before the event - by November 17.

Three ticket types are available: free attendee tickets, free contributor tickets (for those published in the magazine), and “gold tickets” that include a copy of the magazine. Copies of the magazine will be available for purchase at the event.

Unable to attend the event? Purchase your copy of the magazine from Day Eight's online bookstore.
