The Art of Giving: A Community Art Installation

Join us for a lively and meaningful evening as we toast 50 years of Arlington Thrive empowering neighbors in crisis and helping our community soar.

Set against the backdrop of our Art of Giving community art installation at Ballston Quarter, this happy hour celebration will bring together supporters, neighbors, and local changemakers for a festive night of drinks, bites, and connection.

Enjoy music, a pop-up display of community artwork, and a virtual silent auction featuring exciting items and experiences donated by local businesses—all while supporting the critical, same-day assistance Arlington Thrive provides to neighbors facing eviction, job loss, medical emergencies, and more.

Whether you've been with us since the beginning or are just getting to know our mission, this event is a chance to celebrate how far we've come—and help shape what comes next.

Tickets include:

• One complimentary drink
• Light appetizers
• An evening filled with inspiration and impact

Come raise a glass to 50 years of compassion in action—and be part of the next chapter in helping Arlington thrive.
