Looking for engaging, welcoming things to do on weeknights in Arlington? Whether you are looking to step out of your comfort zone, meet an incredible community of local creatives, or escape the corporate grind with comedy, a brand-new monthly series is touching down this season—and it’s completely free. Welcome to Sillygander: Watch &amp; Learn Improv, a limited-run interactive experience produced by Resonance Improv Alliance.

Built specifically as a piece of accessible entertainment for teens and adults (ages 16+), Sillygander breaks down the invisible wall between the audience and the stage. This event is divided into two distinct parts:

<ul><li>Part 1: The Intro Workshop (5:30 PM): If you’ve ever wanted to try improv in Northern Virginia, this is your supportive launchpad. Led by experienced, welcoming instructors from the Resonance network, this 40-minute session is designed entirely for absolute beginners and the improv-curious. Through collaborative group games and foundational exercises, you’ll explore the core tenets of applied improv: active listening, spontaneous agreement ("Yes, And"), and building trust with scene partners. It’s a playground for your weary mind.</li><li>Part 2: The Showtime Jam (6:10 PM): Once the workshop wraps, the lights stay up for a live performance. Local indie ensembles, veteran community players, and brave workshop graduates take the stage to spin audience suggestions into spontaneous comedy sets. Because it’s created entirely on the fly by your neighbors, it is an incredibly supportive and collaborative live comedy show. It's a space where DMV audiences can experience the pure joy of watching people say "Yes, And" to each other in real time. Expect a night that is warm, completely unpredictable, and above all, really fun.</li></ul>

Register on Eventbrite
Register for reminders and to help us plan.&nbsp;<a href="https://sillygander.eventbrite.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">sillygander.eventbrite.com</a>Sillygander is a true community gathering. You don’t need a ticket, an RSVP, or a confirmation code to join the circle or watch the show, but registering helps us plan. Can’t wait to laugh with you!&nbsp;

Logistics
<ul><li>Cost: 100% Free. In alignment with local regulations, no soliciting or donations will take place at this event.</li><li>Content Note: Due to the spontaneous nature of live improv, content is unpredictable and typically lands between a PG-13 and R-rated baseline. Intended for ages 16+.</li></ul>

Notice: This event is not sponsored by Arlington Public Library.
Media Consent Notice: By attending Sillygander, you enter an area where photography, audio, and video recording may occur by Resonance Improv Alliance for community and promotional use. However, we value your privacy and comfort above all else.

At Northern Virginia Family Services (NVFS), one of the region’s largest and most established human services nonprofits, we believe every child deserves to walk into the classroom on the first day of school feeling confident, prepared, and ready to learn. But for many local families, the excitement of a new school year is overshadowed by the financial stress of buying school supplies. By helping families meet this essential need, we can ease financial pressure and give students the tools they need to succeed from day one.
This summer, NVFS is bringing together individuals, businesses, and community partners from across Northern Virginia, to provide new backpacks and essential school supplies to more than 1,500 local students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Together, we're helping children feel prepared for the school year ahead while easing the financial burden on families working toward greater stability.
You can help families start the school year with confidence. Whether you donate, host a supply drive, or spread the word, every contribution helps equip students for success in the classroom, and strengthens families across our community.
Help us reach our goal. There are several ways you can help.
<ul><li>Donate to our Back2School Fund online, and we'll shop for the most-needed supplies on your behalf: <a href="https://nvfs.link/b2sdonate" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nvfs.link/b2sdonate</a></li></ul>
<ul><li>Shop our Amazon Wish List by July 22: <a href="https://nvfs.link/b2s2026amazon" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">nvfs.link/b2s2026amazon</a></li></ul>
<ul><li>Host a school supply drive or learn more about how you can support the campaign: <a href="https://nvfs.link/b2s" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nvfs.link/b2s</a></li></ul>
The new school year will be here before we know it. Together, we can make back-to-school season a time to help more than 1,500 local students start the school year strong and give families one less worry as they work toward a brighter future.
