• 💁‍♀️Support a local, woman-owned ally business! Going on 10-years strong, Tenth Ward is a Frederick-based, woman-owned small business that supports us year-round.

Host Brandon can't wait to welcome you back or welcome you and get you acquainted!

P.S. There is often ample free street parking close by + the

If you're not familiar with Warehouse Cinemas, they are independently owned, have an elevated food menu, draft beers, cocktails, wine, concessions, reclining seats, great sound, etc.

It'll be a nice little midweek break that still has you home at a decent time.

Here is more on the promotion from Warehouse Cinema:
...
Get ready to make your Wednesdays absolutely incredible! We're thrilled to announce our brand-new summer promotion that's about to change how you think about movie nights.
Starting May 27th: "Crazy 8s" Every Wednesday! Here's the deal that's almost too good to believe:

• $8 Movie Tickets (any show, all day!)
• $8 Food Items (our entire menu!)
• $8 Concessions (yes, everything!)
No fine print. No restrictions. Just $8. We get it – nights out have gotten expensive, and you shouldn't have to choose between great entertainment and staying on budget. That's why we created Crazy 8s: one simple price point for an amazing experience. The best part? This isn't just for moviegoers!

~~~
Crazy 8s applies to Warehouse’s full menu, not a limited combo. Every item is $8 every Wednesday, from the chain’s signature popcorn topped with real butter to gourmet grilled cheese, fresh pizzas, shareable appetizers, and the fan-favorite wildberry cheesecake funnel cake fries. One price across the board, snacks and meals alike.
Tappy Hour, Warehouse’s daily half-off bar program, will run all day on Crazy 8s Wednesdays. That means 50 percent off across the entire bar, including pours from the self-serve pour wall, summer-themed cocktails, draft beer, wine by the glass, and spirits.

It's the end of a long month in the middle of a busy workweek....You totally deserve an evening of casual elegance without the weekend noise. Our Wednesday Wine Down at Vesuvisus Italian & Wine Bar is the perfect place to unwind and connect with fellow LGBTQ+ professionals as you enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail or two with community, and "Experience the perfect collision of sea, earth, and fire through [Vesuvius'] curated flavors and sun-drenched hospitality." Sounds like some delicious Italian cuisine and the makings for a great night!
