The clarion call of the Jazz Age sounded in 1919 at the National Press Club and across the nation. Prohibition began in DC, Woman's Suffrage was won, and women - barred from the all-male National Press Club - formed their own Women’s National Press Club. The Club was even graced by Royalty in 1919 when Edward, the Prince of Wales, made an appearance.
To commemorate all of these events, the History and Heritage team is joining forces with Events and Young Members to host a party in the Reliable Source on Oct. 23 from 6:30 to 9:30. Music will be provided by the Jefferson Street Strutters, a Ragtime/Dixieland band, interspersed with brief history tidbits about the Club that year, about Prohibition, and about the invention classic cocktails.
Reliable Source bartenders are devising a special cocktail for the evening.
No special charge for the evening, but please RSVP so we know how many people are coming. Plan on a fun evening and have dinner at the Reliable Source during the festivities.
