Hopefully, you got some rest this weekend because the week’s social calendar is jampacked.

Since there is a lot going on and a lot of holiday parties, HOH weeded through the list to give you the best options each day.

For staffers, these parties are accessible from the Hill and are fairly easy to get into.

Tuesday

The Heritage Foundation, from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. at 214 Massachusetts Ave. NE. RSVP by emailing gerren.mcham@heritage.org.
