June Dinner Event at Founding Farmers & Distillers DC

June 17, 2026 6:00 PM • 600 Massachusetts Avenue, NW Washington, DC

May Re-Cap

O Mansion Dinner & Discussion was Outstanding!

Our May Dinner Meeting at O Mansion was outstanding! H Leonard and her team curated a meal that blew everyone’s mind. From the whole smoked salmon to the decadent desserts the food was matched only by the conversation.

Situated in the private Garden Dining Room, the table was set like a State Dinner and H Leonard herself addressed us all and shared how the “O” was created and her newest project unveiling soon 51 Steps to Freedom.

We had to cap attendance at 25 and were pleased to have former presidents Bill Moyer, Barry Biggar, and Mary Peters to greet first timers Tonya Sharpe - Regional VP for Live Nation, Salah Goss - Chief Program Officer for Skoll Foundation, Elias Manneh - Ink-Global, Amy Cannon, MPA, CSTP - Director of SYTA, Mrs. Virginia Ali and Vida Ali of Ben's Chili Bowl, Rynthia Rost -Sunny Hill, and Donna Henry - Owner Soup Up DC.

We were pleased to induct Denise Thorne - President of InStyle Caterers. The evening of networking, information, and association was wonderful and the discussion of why organizations like SKÅL make a difference. Thank you to the entire team at the O Museum in the Mansion, until we meet again.
