Where and When: What to Do Tonight

A roomful of girls, sweet treats, and manicures on a Friday night? Throw in a pillow fight, and we’ve got ourselves a slumber party. Or a super-chic girl-powered event at Aloft Hotel (156 Waterfront St., National Harbor; 301-749-9000). New York DJ and party promoter Roxy Cottontail and the women of the Hey Girl Hey Web site host the soiree featuring cocktails, snacks, portraits, three female DJs, and free nail art by celebrity technician Naomi Yasuda. The free party starts at 7. E-mail getinvolved@thisisheygirlhey.com to RSVP.

For a night of alternative music, check out Hexagon (1698 35th St., NW; 202-333-7469) tonight when it presents Tim Hecker, Aidan Baker, Ecstatic Sunshine, and the Polygons. The show will be presented with help from Environmental Aesthetics. Tickets are $10 at the door, and the concert starts at 9.

Late November doesn’t really seem like the time be showing skin, but try telling that to the Wizards cheerleaders. Basketball fans can “support their team” tonight at the Liaison Hotel when the courtside ladies celebrate the release of their latest calendar. The evening will include a performance, runway show, and mingling with the short-shorts-loving squad. The $20 admission includes a calendar, and all proceeds benefit Wizards Care charity.
