Winter Celebration & Holiday Open House ~ Hosted by Next Phase

Gather with us for a shimmering, glitzy evening as we celebrate the close of the year and look ahead to all that 2026 has in store. Expect warm connections, festive bites, elegant winter décor, and even a live singer to set the mood. This year’s theme embraces the beauty of Winter Magic—think snowflakes, white glitz, cool florals, and a sparkling atmosphere.

📅 Tuesday, December 16

⏰ Open House | 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM

📍 Next Phase 10175 Little Patuxent Parkway, Columbia, MD

Plenty of parking - 2 parking garages!

While Next Phase usually holds their annual gala off-site, we’re scaling back this year in recognition of the difficult challenges many in our community are facing. Instead of a lavish event, we’re redirecting a portion of our gala budget to local food banks—and we invite you to join us in spreading some goodwill.

❤️ Food Drive:
Please consider bringing non-perishable food items to support families in need this season.

🍸 Dress Code:
Business or Cocktail Attire with a touch of festive sparkle encouraged!

Catered eats, great music, warm company, and meaningful impact—

And yes… you are most definitely invited. See you soon!
