"First Fridays in Dupont" - Galleries Open Late
every first Friday of the month
6:00pm - 8:00pm
Free
Hillyer stays open latest, til 9:00pm
$5 donation suggested at Hillyer

From Hillyer email "On the First Friday of every month galleries in our community open their doors to multitudes of art enthusiasts from all walks of life for simultaneous openings. We encourage all to join us for our openings and to circulate between our neighboring galleries, which host an ever-changing array of styles and media."

Note that most other galleries are only open from 6:00pm - 8:00pm, Hillyer stays open the latest, til 9:00pm.  There isn't an official website for the galleries in Dupont but the Dupont Circle Arts blog seems to be a pretty good resource. If you start at  WPA or Hillyer and work from there -  they may have an old map on hand - you can just follow the people to galleries along R St and Conn Ave mostly.
