Washington History Magazine Release Party
Event description
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.
WHO’S INVITED?
Whether you’re a current author, past contributor, DC History Center member, or an avid reader, take this opportunity to get to know Washington History and connect with like-minded, DC history lovers! Boundary Stone is family friendly. Registration is appreciated but walk-ins are welcome. We hope you’ll join us for good conversations, a drink (beer, wine, and nonalcoholic options) purchased from our host, and provided snacks.
