History on Foot: Arts & Industries Building
We were thrilled to attend a party held at the Smithsonian Arts & Industries Building (900 Jefferson Drive SW) last night. This museum has been closed as long as we’ve lived here. The renovation progress is impressive, but there’s still a long road ahead. Any companies looking for a unique event venue while also contributing to the completion of the renovation project, be sure to plan your visit!
