Deets: Ring in the holidays with an après-ski pop-up bringing the Alps to Mount Vernon Triangle! To celebrate the grand opening of the neighborhood’s newest luxury residence, Cantata, Quadrangle Development Corporation and The Wilkes Company invite you to an immersive ski chalet experience with a chance to win prizes from favorite neighborhood retailers. Guests will enjoy hearty, indulgent bites fit for après-ski, like raclette poutine alongside a boozy hot chocolate bar with cookies from A Baked Joint.

Get in the holiday spirit as you craft your own wreath at the holiday wreath workshop hosted by local florist She Loves Me. As keepsakes for the night, guests will be gifted their very own hot chocolate mug and a caricature artist will capture your likeness in an unforgettable way. Throughout the evening, snap photos with snowy backdrops at the ski-themed photo installation while a DJ spins holiday beats.

Don’t leave your four-legged friend at home! To celebrate D.C.’s most dog-friendly building, dogs are invited to join the alpine adventure at the second-floor dog park. Pups can enjoy treats at the holiday bone bar and sit for a holiday portrait – perfect for last-minute holiday cards or gifts! Make sure your pooch is dressed in their holiday best for a chance to win the pet costume contest, with the winner scoring a gift card to Nicoletta Italian Kitchen.

Residents and guests are also invited to participate in Cantata’s cookie swap, where the first 50 participants who bake and bring a guest automatically receive a $50 gift card to Joe & The Juice.
