I've been looking forward to doing this indoor art fair for some time. I'll be showing my original artwork, including paintings and resin work, my canvas and poster reproductions, and cards. The VIP night on Thursday will be a dress up/masquerade party, which should be fun, and this is in the same building as all the shops and restaurants at Union Market. Can't wait to see you!

Downtown DC Public Art and Placemaking Strategic Plan.

The DowntownDC invites you to participate in an exciting new five-year initiative to install high-impact public art and streetscape improvements to rejuvenate our communities, attract more visitors, and create strong neighborhood identities.

They want to hear from you!

• What areas do you think should be prioritized?
• What kind of high-impact projects should we invest in?
• Where do you currently visit in Downtown DC?
• Who should be our partners, and how do we guarantee success?

These are just some of the questions we need your help with to develop our new DowntownDC Public Art and Placemaking Strategic Plan.  The Public Art and Placemaking Strategic Plan for DowntownDC is a visionary five-year plan aimed at rapidly and seamlessly integrating new public art, placemaking, and placekeeping initiatives into the area’s urban fabric in ways that enrich the character and identity of the DowntownDC neighborhoods that compose it.
 
Please help inform it by joining them for the first stakeholder workshop on October 26, 2023, 2 pm - 3 pm. Please click here to RSVP to the meeting. 

They look forward to seeing you at the workshop and hearing your ideas! Please RSVP your attendance by using the link.
