A Mexican Portrait by Martha Gabriela Driessen

This online exhibition explores the identity of Mexican people through moments of their everyday life. Take in these beautiful black and white photographs of women carrying flowers, men and musical instruments, children playing in cemeteries, shoe shiners, hat sellers, and traditional dresses. Watch an interview with the artist and learn more about her work behind the scenes here. The exhibition will be available until February 13, 2021.  

Old Korean Legation

The Old Korean Legation building is a meaningful space that has witnessed major events in both Korean and American history. Today, this building is the sole example preserving its original appearance among the extant nineteenth-century diplomatic mission buildings in DC. Although it is closed to the public due to the pandemic, you can visit it online and explore its marvelous rooms.
