This museum is a gem! The spectacular main hall alone is worth a visit. It is unlike anything else in DC and the best special events space, hands down. Their exhibits are always interesting, and kids LOVE the family programs. (Parents love having a large indoor area kids can run around in.) It is also extremely easy to get to by the red, green, or yellow Metro lines.
Zenith is the real and authentically reliable spot for any serious artist who may not want to mingle frustrations of other so-called gallery owners with his practice .
The delicately displayed work of the Impressionists is certainly moving. Particularly, Monet's Woman with a Parasol evokes faded memories of lost childhood which may be hard to access without such a medium. That said, the best work of art in America is Brady's spiral, brother. Go Pats.
The park itself is designed well and the staff were friendly to me. The fountain area was lovely. There's a thought provoking sculpture arrangement set in the woods behind it called "The Girls" by a Polish artist which was probably my favorite installation. I've put some pictures below of some more of the best in my opinion. The only complaint I could make is the low standard of quality for a piece to make it on display here. But that speaks more to the state of modern art than the gallery.
Impeccable selection of some of the greatest art in the world. Alexander Calder's mobile sculpture creates an amenable ambiance of inspiration. A MUST SEE when you come to the District of Columbia!
Nice tucked away area with murals and a few small restaurants. Lots of people taking photos...Nice art work and hope to see more. It’s worth checking out if you are nearby.
An incredible venue for weddings and events. The textures alone and different large spaces are breath taking. The layout for last nights Washingtonian event allowed for a great flow of 350+ people. Wine tasting and cotton candy! A lovely evening, fun had by all. Highly recommend paying for parking two doors down ahead of time. Worth reserving
