Join us for a fun, curious, and reflective evening walk through four of DC’s most iconic war memorials — moving from daylight to twilight to full night as the monuments shift in mood and meaning. This is a zero‑expertise, all‑welcome adventure designed for adults who like learning, laughing, and noticing things together.
We’ll explore how the U.S. remembers war — through architecture, symbolism, and the stories we choose to elevate — with light, playful activities at each stop. Perfect just before Memorial Day!
