Members of the George Washington University community came together Jan. 31 for GW Program Board's annual winter gala, hosted with the Division for Student Affairs. Attendees celebrated a night of elegance, with a bit of mystery inspired by this year's masquerade theme, at the National Portrait Gallery.
Guests danced; enjoyed delicious food; took in student performances by Pitches, Sons of Pitches, and the GW Orchestra; and made lasting memories, all while surrounded by famous works of art and the National Portrait Gallery's iconic architecture.
Students taking a break from the dance floor had lots of activities to choose from, including a photo booth, caricature artist, senior scrapbook and more. Goodie bags focused on well-being were a final treat to round out the evening. (Photos by Florence Shen and Cooper Tyksinski)
