East Arlington will be Romancing the Square this Valentine’s Day weekend with a series of events that will inspire as much love for your surroundings as for the people who surround you.
Kicking off on Friday, February 12, a series of events and specials in Capitol Square will celebrate the mysteries of love and art. Exhibits will be found in galleries and restaurants and several other venues. Capitol Square, East Arlington’s business district, is a fun destination for great cinema, eclectic shopping, and scrumptious dining. Home to the Arlington Center for the Arts and a flourishing community of creative-minded businesses, Capitol Square nourishes the artistic inclinations in all of us.
The weekend will culminate with a raffle drawing for the “Whole Lotta Love from Capitol Square” gift basket – valued at over $600. Businesses are donating merchandise and gift certificates to the basket, which will be raffled off to benefit the Arlington Center for the Arts. Raffle tickets can be purchased at ACA and at ARTBEAT during the weekend, with the drawing on February 15th.
