17th Street High Heel
Drag Queen Race

A yearly Halloween tradition, this Dupont Circle event is exactly what the name says! Always taking place the Tuesday before Halloween the race is part athletic event, part fashion show, part block party.

The city is optimistic about the race coming back for 2021! If you are in town early, this is a great way to experience an amazing neighborhood culture and cheer on you favorite drag Meryl Streep (there are usually multiple).

National Gallery of Art - West Wing

Smithsonian

I know everyone has been here on some middle school field trip, but you really cannot beat free access to some of the best exhibits in the world. There are so many options, including:

  • National Air and Space Museum:
    New wing under construction!

  • Nation Museum of American History: Original Wizard of Oz ruby slippers anyone? Along with the other President stuff of course…

  • National Museum of the American Indian

  • Hirshorn Museum: National Gallery of Art too ho-hum for you? Here’s the trippy stuff.

  • National Museum of Natural History

  • National Museum of African American History and Culture: Reserve tickets ahead of time, it is super popular.

  • National Gallery of Art: Right next to the French Impressionist is a great place to get engaged…

Black Lives Matter Plaza

A full two block section of 16th St Downtown facing the White House, this installment became an official landmark in June of 2020. Really an impactful sight in person, and makes the two block walk to the White House more thought provoking.
