Some events are open to just residents of a specific community, some are open to residents and Friends of OSG, and others are open to anyone in the Northern VA area.

SPARC is hosting a pancake breakfast to support their mission. They’re a day program that sets the stage for learning skills and habits that improve life for people with disabilities and their families.

To show our support, OSG acquired a few tickets for anyone would like to attend. We’ll enjoy pancake together, play games, bid on special raffle items, enter the pie contest, and enjoy the homemade treats at the bake sale.

Signing up here on our website is free (since OSG already bought the tickets), but space is limited. If our tickets are sold out here, you’re welcome to purchase your own here on SPARC’s website.

By eating delicious pancakes, you’ll be supporting scholarships, our new microgreens curriculum, Zumba, yoga, and therapeutic art and music classes.

Join OSG in a musical event where we’ll play drums and create rhythm together. Participants will get a chance to express themselves by playing a multitude of percussive instruments, while also creating a communal sound. Drum circles are known to relieve stress, create community, and… it’s just fun to hit a drum! 

This is an informal gathering and the music is entirely improvised through group listening and interaction. No experience is needed – all are welcome!

DETAILS TO ATTEND:

  •  Please RSVP below.
  • We will meet at Gilliam Place Apartments in the garden
  • Drums and Percussion provided, just bring yourself and some good energy!
