A Capital Evening XI

With the Ambassador at her official residence in Washington.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

John S. Mulholland Family Foundation is pleased to announce that our single fundraising event of the year, A Capital Evening XI, will be held at The Ritz-Carlton, Washington, on Friday, November 22, 2024. Silent Auction, cocktails, dinner and dancing begin at 6:00 PM. We will once again be serenaded by the fabulous Radio King Orchestra and pleased to be supported by a host of sponsors, including Caruso Florist, and made possible by our Underwriting Sponsors Sharon Briskman, and Marg and Steve Swink.
 
 
John S. Mulholland Family Foundation will be honored by the presence of Her Excellency, Geraldine Byrne Nason, Ambassador of Ireland to the United States.
 
A special room rate, for those who wish to take the elevator home after the Gala, and reduced valet parking rate are available to JSM guests. 
 
You will want to be a part of what has been called “the best Gala in Washington each year” — it is elegant, sophisticated, short on speeches, long on music and great conversation. And the Ladies and Gentlemen of The Ritz-Carlton will ensure that every detail is delivered with their legendary clockwork efficiency. 
 
Reserve today; it will surely be a sell out evening:
