"First Fridays in Dupont"
Galleries stay open late
Friday, May 7th
6:00pm - 8:00pm
Hillyer til 9:00pm
Free

I suggest starting at WPA first and heading over to Hillyer last, checking out the other galleries in between. There is not an official website of the participating galleries unfortunately but you may be able to find some old print maps with a list of galleries, some of which have moved or closed. Most of the galleries are along R St between 20th & 21st and along Conn Ave from the Circle til Florida Avenue. WPAS is located a bit off the path on Mass Ave between 20th & 21st.

I met Chajana at my friend Jon's art show recently and she was telling me about her upcoming show at WPA, which sounds really interesting and hard to explain. This Friday is her opening, which will include an art installation and live performance art as well. You can read more about her show "Oneness, Shock and Return!" on her facebook invite here or on the WPA website here.

It's always a party at Hillyer, and they stay open the latest. Most galleries close by 8:00pm. You can visit Hillyer til 9:00pm. They are hidden back in the alley between the Phillips Collection buildings, walk back and turn right. Read more about what Hillyer has planned on their First Friday facebook invite here!
