Date Night at the Workhouse!

Looking for a new idea for Date Night?

Saturday night at the Workhouse features Chef’s Table, bring someone special and join us for an evening of cooking and fun!

During this fun cooking course you'll work side by side with your date as our instructor teaches the easy yet impressive techniques behind a menu of dishes designed to inspire the warm fuzzies every time! Each month a new dish is featured.  Tuition is $70 per couple and includes food and non-alcoholic drink.* A cash bar will be available.

Come early and enjoy Sir Alan and the Calypso Ponzi Schemers, performing Calypso music, as part of our FREE Mount Vernon Nights Concert series.

If cooking is not your style, perhaps Urban Decay is!  Come stroll through our featured art exhibition in the McGuireWoods Gallery, then catch the FREE film screening of BOMB IT in the W-3 Theatre. 

BOMB IT is the explosive new documentary from award-winning director Jon Reiss investigating the most subversive and controversial art form currently shaping international youth culture: graffiti. Through interviews and guerilla footage of graffiti writers in action on 5 continents, BOMB IT tells the story of graffiti from its origins in prehistoric cave paintings thru its notorious explosion in New York City during the 70's and 80's, then follows the flames as they paint the globe. The film features old school legends and current favorites such as Taki 183, Cornbread, Stay High 149, T-Kid, Cope 2, Zephyr, Revs, Os Gemeos, KET, Chino, Shepard Fairey, Revok, and Mear One. This cutting edge documentary tracks down today’s most innovative and pervasive street artists as they battle for control over the urban visual landscape. You’ll never look at public space the same way again.

BOMB IT was shot in Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Tijuana, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Hamburg, Berlin, Cape Town, São Paulo, and Tokyo.
