Meet the artists, view the art, and enjoy light refreshments at each stop! We'll start at Gallery B's 2026 Bethesda Painting Awards! There were more than 500 talented applicants this year, and the jury awarded 4 prizes. Amy Kaslow is exhibiting the work of two Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonists with some of the finest lampoons called “What’s So Funny?” Syndicated cartoonists Nick Anderson and Mike Luckovich take daily swipes in newspapers and summon us to reflect and repair. Triangle Art Studios is excited to welcome guest artist Alexis Limpiado! She is a Philippine-born artist now based in Frederick, MD. Studio B is always fun with their inventive artists as is Waverly Street Gallery where we will finish. If there's interest, we can grab a bite at Andy's Pizza.

DC Anime Club Will Host a Lolita Picnic We will meet up in front of the Smithsonian Metro station at the top of the entrance escalators at Mall Exit and then proceed to the picnic area. For those who are unfamiliar, Lolita is a fashion subculture in Japan that is primarily influenced by Victorian children clothing, as well as costumes from the Rococo period. Lolita has made this into a unique fashion by adding gothic and original design elements to the look. From this, Lolita fashion has evolved into several different sub ...styles and has created a devoted subculture in Japan. The Lolita look consists primarily of a knee- length skirt or dress, headdress, blouse, petticoat, knee-high socks or stockings, and rocking horse or high heel/platform shoes. Attendees are encouraged to bring food, since there will be a potluck with the photo shoot. We hope to see you there. For more information please contact president@dcanimeclub.org. (240) 507-7855 (phone)

The Happy Treehouse Social Club of Alexandria Presents a Wicked FUN Improv Night Under the Pavilion with The Ripple Effect OVERVIEW: Let’s be honest. Life gives us plenty of serious moments. This night is not one of them. TIME: Join us from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM for a night of spontaneous comedy with The Ripple Effect, an improv troupe that travels around the DMV bringing laughter to places where people could use a little more joy. Hospitals, community events, gatherings like this one. Anywhere people need a good laugh, we show up and start a ripple. And once the laughter starts, it spreads fast. POOL: The pool (heated to 85 degrees) will be OPEN just no making noise during the actual improv show which will be between 9-10:30pm. Bring your own towel and note you cannot take a shower at the Happy Treehouse. WHAT IS INPROV: If you’ve never seen improv live before, you’re in for a treat. Nothing is scripted. No one knows what’s going to happen next, including us. The entire show is built in real time based on your suggestions from the audience. You might shout out a job. A location. A random object. And suddenly you’re watching a scene about a dog therapist with boundary issues or a married couple arguing about who forgot to charge the emotional support Roomba. That’s the magic of improv. Quick thinking, unexpected twists, and the kind of laughter that sneaks up on you. Why people love watching improv You laugh harder because you never see the joke coming. You get to participate by shouting out ideas that shape the scene. You watch performers build something hilarious out of thin air. And the whole audience ends up laughing together because everyone is experiencing something that has never happened before and will never happen again. WHY COME?: You’ll definitely walk out feeling lighter than when you walked in. And along the way you might meet a few new people who also enjoy laughing. Because honestly… who doesn’t want funny friends? VIBE FOR THE NIGHT & WHAT TO BRING: The vibe for the evening This is a relaxed BYOB potluck gathering under the pavilion. Bring your favorite drink. Bring a dish to share. Bring a lawn chair if you have one. If you forget a chair, no problem. You can grab one of the chairs here, relax on the in-ground trampoline, or find a cozy spot around the pavilion. We’ll have the fire going, s’mores ready, and plenty of room to settle in and enjoy the show. Think backyard comedy club meets campfire hangout. Great people. Great laughs. A little silliness. And a ripple of joy spreading through the crowd. Hope to see you there. Your Happy Host With Southern Charm & North East Wit Janine Driver 202-271-0922

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.
