Thanks to Martha for sharing: “A new modern art museum in D.C. opens to the public this weekend – the Rubell Museum – and it’s free to District residents!”

From the Mayor’s Office:

“The Rubell Museum DC, which will open to the public on Saturday, October 29, will have exhibits that include contemporary paintings, sculptures, photographs, videos, and site-specific work by local, national, and international artists. District residents will receive free admission to the museum and Ward 6 residents will be provided with expanded opportunities to engage with artists. The 32,000-square-foot museum will also feature public programming, flexible activation spaces, a bookstore, and a café with indoor and outdoor dining.

The museum, located at 65 I Street SW, is housed in the historic former Randall School, which was built in 1906 as a school for African American children. The adaptive reuse of the former school into a museum preserves an important DC landmark and brings it back to life as a public resource. Another part of the redevelopment, adjacent to the museum, is Gallery 64 – which will deliver 492 apartments, including 98 affordable units, in early 2023.”

Wednesday: 11:30 am – 5:30 pm
Thursday: 11:30 am – 5:30 pm
Friday: 11:30 am – 5:30 pm

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
