The event will begin outside of The DC Arts Center (2438 18th Street NW, Washington, DC 20009) on the sidewalk. Attendees will take a guided tour of the artwork alongside participating artists. Upon arriving at each artist’s “stop”, they will speak to the group about their art, process, and more. Open to the public, no tickets required.
Each Saturday and Sunday throughout the event, The DC Arts Center will offer FREE guided walking tours of the AdMo Art Walk, making brief stops at each location to discuss the artwork, artists, and local businesses. Space is limited, so please reserve your spot here.
