Join the DC History Center’s gathering of scholars, community members, and readers to celebrate the latest issue of Washington History magazine.

This issue of Washington History visits three very different DC addresses to reveal the people who, through persistence and force of personality, thrived in our city. Celebrate the spring issue of the magazine with our DC history community on Wednesday, May 21, at Boundary Stone (116 Rhode Island Ave NW). Around 6:45 pm, we will hear from the editor and recognize the authors who contributed to this issue.
