The Library of Congress kicks off Happy Hour and extended exhibit hours on Thursdays and we're delighted to have reserved tickets for William and Mary alumni to enjoy all this special programming has to offer. We invite you to wear your W&M swag to make it easier to identify other members of our group.

Attendees are invited to enjoy happy hour drinks and food available for purchase in the Great Hall and the Jefferson Building's beautiful architecture while immersing themselves in the Library's exhibits, collections, and programs. At 7:00 pm, we will celebrate the arrival of the House of Blues Radio Collection at the Library of Congress as blues artists are featured in live performance in the Coolidge Auditorium and curators will display items from the House of Blues Collection and other blues items in the Library's holdings in the Great Hall and along Mahogany Row. The performance requires separate ticket reservations, and you can reserve those here: https://www.loc.gov/item/event-412814/live-at-the-library-the-house-of-blues-moves-into-the-library-of-congress/2024-06-27/
