Kade

Kade immigrated to the United States from Berlin, Germany. Before moving to Washington he resided on the fifth floor of the Kaufhof des Westens (KaDeWe). There he had many friends to play with, and late at night they often snuck up to the gourmet floor, where they could choose from over 3000 wines, 1300 cheeses and 300 truffles and pralines. He highly recommends stopping by the KaDeWe if you happen to find yourself in Berlin (just don’t forget to ask him for his shopping list before you go).


Kade also frequented Berlin’s many museums, so he was pleased to end up in a city with many fine cultural institutions of its own. One of his favorite museums is the Corcoran Gallery of Art, where he recently viewed the exhibition William Eggleston: Democratic Camera, Photographs and Video, 1961-2008. After checking out the wonderful photographs he attended the 1869 Society’s Cultural Cocktails. He had lots of fun catching up with friends and partaking in Barefoot Wine’s wine tasting. As usual, he gravitated towards the bubbly (paired with popcorn, another favorite treat), and made certain to position himself near that tasting table all evening. Kade was excited to hear that the 1869 Society is now supporting ArtReach, which offers free arts education programs in local community centers, including THEARC and the Sitar Center. He can’t wait until the next 1869 Society event, and is really looking forward to Fall Fête on October 24.
