Lunch at Goodwin House
In January 2025, winter weather cancelled our lunch at Goodwin House, saddening our sizable ARTA group. Plan to join us this January to visit and lunch with our ARTA friends who reside there.
Mark your calendars to join us on Wednesday, January 14 before noon at Goodwin House, 3440 S. Jefferson Street, Falls Church. Parking is available on site or in the nearby Giant parking lot.
After signing in at the front desk, proceed to the main dining room to purchase a full, sit-down lunch. The cost for the new year has not been set, but plan on around $25-30. Cash or credit cards are accepted.
Prior to lunch, the ARTA Executive Board will meet in the Smith Study from 9:30 to 11:45 a.m.
Please email Nancy King @nw_king@yahoo.com no later than Monday, January 12 to let her know that you will be joining us. You may also call or text her at 703-408-9369.
Goodwin House host Lynn Juhl must let the dining staff know by end of the day January 12 how many to expect. Closer to the 12th, Nancy will contact those attending to share a more accurate cost of the lunch.
We hope that many of our ARTA friends living at Goodwin House will join us!
