Washington Walks

Washington Walks was founded by Carolyn Crouch in 1999. It was the first company to offer walking tours of Washington, DC, to tell the stories of the people and places in the nation's capital. Knowledgeable tour guides offer fun narratives of history and share interesting perspectives about different DC neighborhoods. March tours include walking tours of Theodore Roosevelt Island and a Blossom Secrets Stroll. Washington Walks tours are $20 per person. No reservations are necessary. You may pay in advance or online.

To Be A Woman is on display through March 25. The opening reception is free, but registration is required. Please register here.

Nature's Best Photography

See the best nature photography in the world on the second floor of the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. More than 26,000 photos were submitted for the Windland Smith Rice International Awards and 60 were selected for display in this visually inspiring exhibit. In addition to the photos, you'll see a video of manta rays and sharks feeding and a camera display that shows how they have evolved over time. The exhibit is open through September.
