The event falls around Mardi Gras every February and offers creole-inspired food and cocktails. The Open House is always free and open to all.The Chapter House is located at 205 South Patrick Street (Route 1 Northbound) in Old Town Alexandria, one block south of the Washington-Alexandria Architecture Center. Street parking restrictions have lifted by the evening and spaces are usually available. King Street Metro station is served by the Blue and Yellow lines and is ten blocks from the Chapter House. A free bus runs up and down King Street from the station and shortens the walk to two blocks by walking south on Patrick Street.
