The first annual Consortium art show
For one weekend in September, a private mansion in Upper Georgetown becomes the most beautiful room in Washington. Work by women artists, hung salon-style the way Paris did it a century ago: floor to ceiling, frame to frame, every wall alive. Sculpture on the mantels. Paintings up the staircase. Art where art is meant to live, in a home, among people, with a glass in your hand.

Thanks to G. for sharing from the Honor Flight Network:
“With the government shut down, the Joint Service Color Guard is not available to post colors for our Honor Flight hubs. But the Dunbar High School (101 N Street, NW) Army JROTC was more than happy to assist.” (more…)
