Hi friends!
Let it be known – the holidays are officially here! 📜
Beginning this Friday, relive the magic of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe with Adventure Theatre! This two-person rendition of the beloved story is sure to make beautiful wintertime memories for audiences ages 4 and up. Purchase tickets now!
Photoworks is hosting three events this weekend: cyanotype printing for the whole family, a behind-the-scenes look at the processes behind the current exhibition, and an artist talk. Learn more and don't forget to RSVP!
We are so excited to welcome visitors to the Opening Reception for our annual Holiday Art Show & Sale in the Popcorn Gallery & Stone Tower Gallery from 6pm to 8pm this Saturday. But don't despair, if you would rather do your shopping during the day, the show opens at 12pm!
Park View Gallery will also be hosting an Opening Reception Saturday night from 6pm to 8pm: Sushila Bloom's Birds and Blooms is a relaxing watercolor exhibit showcasing fauna and flora throughout the seasons.
Also on Saturday will be Glen Echo Pottery's first – of two – Winter Outdoor Pottery Market. So there's no excuse for not getting your holiday shopping done early this year. 🎁
Read on for more of this week's happenings. We can't wait to see you at the Park soon!
