October 3, 2010 at 1:32 pm | Posted in events | Leave a comment

The Washington, D.C. chapter of One Brick is kicking off its annual campaign Hollywood-style with its biggest party of the year, slated for Saturday, October 16 at Tonic at Quigley’s Pharmacy in Foggy Bottom.

The evening will be devoted to honoring the true stars of One Brick DC – its volunteers. These volunteers made it possible for the local One Brick chapter to provide more than 8,500 volunteer hours within the community during 2009.

The event will begin at 8 p.m. with two hours of open bar. There will also be celebrity photo opportunities, guest speakers, and raffle prizes from DC Impov, Modern Hair & Nail Studio, Gordon Biersch, Mexicali Blues, Whitlow’s on Wilson, LA Boxing, Red Mango, and Washington Sports Club, to name a few. The DJs Ball, an East Coast DJ collective, will keep beats fresh throughout the evening.

Tickets are limited to the first 100 registered guests.Tickets are $35 until October 15th. Tickets the day of the event or sold at the door are $40. Complete event details are available on the One Brick calendar. http://washingtondc.onebrick.org/event/?eventid=8106
