Art Week is in full swing 🎨 Today, join us to celebrate the MuralsDC projects being installed in Anacostia and to unveil the new Art to Go-Go Shuttle: ⏰11AM 📍633 Howard Rd SE

The inaugural Dominic Painter project unveiling will begin soon! At 11 a.m., join us to learn more about the projects coming to Anacostia.

Anacostia has always been a hub of art, culture, and creative expression. The Anacostia Arts and Culture District is uplifting that history. MuralsDC is a win-win. Not only does it deter graffiti, but it supports local artists and fills our neighborhoods with fantastic art.

If you didn't catch it, the unveiling from yesterday was a resounding success. MuralsDC extends a heartfelt appreciation to @MazPazUno for his stunning work and to the Anacostia BID for their dedicated efforts.

Keep the Beat Week is in full swing! Don't miss the chance to explore the Go-Go inspired murals across the district, including the iconic 'Go-Go City' mural near Howard University. Painted by Kaliq Crosby in 2021, it beautifully captures the vibrant spirit of DC! #KeepTheBeatWeek
