Experiences at The Watergate

Weekend Mahjong Tea with Tim Ma, Saturdays and Sundays from 1pm to 3pm at Kingbird.

Spend an afternoon with celebrated Washington restaurateur Tim Ma and the team behind Lucky Danger during this exclusive Mahjong Tea experience. Guests will begin with a curated afternoon tea service featuring premium tea selections and Asian-inspired sweet and savory bites, followed by expert-led Mahjong instruction and guided gameplay. Designed for beginners and seasoned players alike, this immersive experience offers a fun and social introduction to the art of Chinese Mahjong in one of Washington's most iconic hotel settings with the gorgeous Georgetown waterfront just a stroll away. Limited availability. October 10th through November 15th.

Join us on Thursday, October 15th at 6pm for a floating sound bath at Argentta Spa offering a transformative sensory journey designed to wash away the stresses of urban life. Participants will immerse themselves in a meditative landscape while floating on Argentta's saltwater pool, as the harmonious vibrations of crystal singing bowls, gongs, and other healing instruments create a soothing experience that resonates throughout the entire body. Guided by Natalie Ngounou, owner of Space of Gratitude, this gentle practice encourages deep relaxation.

The Great American Road Trip is a curated group exhibition celebrating the spirit, mythology, and complexity of the American Dream through the eyes of international artists. Timed to coincide with the United States’ birthday, the exhibition offers a fresh, external perspective on American identity — one shaped not by proximity, but by observation, admiration, critique, and cultural dialogue.

The “road trip” serves as both a literal and symbolic framework: a journey across landscapes, ideals, contradictions, and aspirations that define America. Through this lens, the exhibition explores themes of freedom, reinvention, ambition, and cultural influence.

Each artist brings a distinct cultural and artistic language, unified by their engagement with American symbolism and global perception.
