Our Favorite Instagram Moments From Washingtonian’s 50th Anniversary Party

We turned the big 5-0 last night, and our birthday party was one for the books. Held at the National Museum of Women in the Arts, we celebrated the people who helped Washingtonian reach our 50th year of publication: past and current employees, sponsors, and of course, our readers.

Here our some of our favorite moments from the party, as told by Instagram:
