Arena Stage is one of the hottest venues in the region, and this item will get you two passes to one of the hottest shows of the season.

What begins as a razor-sharp debate spirals into a world-altering unraveling as
four scholars are thrust into a kaleidoscopic odyssey through memory, identity,
and the fragile boundaries of belief. As the world around them transforms, they
find unexpected solace, love, and companionship. Collectively, they wrestle with
profound and unsettling questions about purpose, morality, and what it truly
means to be alive. The Motion is a searing, intelligent, and emotionally charged
journey into the core of the human condition-where certainty shatters,
vulnerability reigns, and no conviction emerges unscathed.

"Mt Pleasant Date Night - Murch Alum Restaurant

One of Washington's most fawned-over pizza places, 2Amys spun off a new restaurant in the city's hip Mount Pleasant neighborhood. Bar del Monte is steered by pizzaiolo Peter Pastan's son, Oliver Pastan, and the father-son duo specializes in unpretentious, perfectly executed Italian food. - Food and Wine Magazine

Top 40 Restaurant - Washington Post
""Little tweaks make this Italian small-plates source in Mount Pleasant even more likable than when it set sail last year. You can ease into dinner with a drink, for instance. The batch cocktails include an ace Negroni and a salty-with-olive martini. Need to wait for one of the 40 or so seats? The no-reservations storefront from chef-owner Oliver Pastan offers a lovely rear patio with bench seating and a garden of basil, oregano, sungold tomatoes and fig trees.

The harvest from the outdoor amenity finds itself on many of the plates that leave the small open kitchen. Take summer's sublime gazpacho, fragrant with basil, bold with dried chiles and served with (nice touch) grilled-to-order croutons sliced from house-baked country bread.

Bar Del Monte is where you'll find one of the city's most sublime fritto mistos, a heap of onion rings, juicy cod cheeks and shishito peppers in a barely-there golden batter in late summer. (The toss changes with the season.) Anything with lamb or offal - or both - is awesome, as are the thin, leopard-spotted pizzas based on red wheat milled on-site. (The owner is the son of pizza maestro Peter Pastan of 2 Amys fame. Chip off the block and all that, down to his serious appreciation of Italian wine.) The kind and easy service and light-filled setting - cool marble tables, walls in brick or white paint, a small bar - summon a neighborhood draw in San Francisco, which I once called home, or Rome, where Oliver Pastan spent a year working in restaurants."" - Tom Siestma, Washington Post"

Malabar invites you to savor the coast of India cuisine along with our signature dishes which have been highly enjoyed over the years by guests of our other Indian restaurants. James Beard award winning chef, Vikram Sunderam, and his Rasika chefs have designed the menu, with a focus on freshly ground spices and seasonal ingredients at its core, and which can be paired with curated wines, craft cocktails, and beers.

This will include Day One Exam, Xrays, and Comprehensive Scoliosis Analysis.

Inspired by Marimekko's iconic Unikko print, originally designed by Maija Isola in 1964, this joyful class collage celebrates bold creativity through the eyes of our Ice Cream Pandas: Pre-K 4 artists. Unikko, which means "poppy" in Finnish, is known for its oversized, graphic flowers and vibrant color palette. Our students explored that same spirit of fearless design using paper, scissors, glue, and markers to create their own interpretations of the famous pink blooms.

Each child contributed a unique flower, embracing organic shapes, expressive lines, and bright pink and red hues. The result is a dynamic, abstract garden filled with movement, personality, and playful charm. No two flowers are alike, reflecting the individuality and imagination of every young artist. It is both a tribute to a design classic and a celebration of early artistic exploration, making it a vibrant and meaningful addition to any home.

Hang it anywhere and it will bring light to the room. But it will mean the most to the person who knows the hands that made it. Acrylic on canvas, 22 in x 22 in, original gold frame

Inspired by the painting "Iris, Tulips, Jonquils, and Crocuses" by artist Alma Thomas, our kindergarten artists created this joyful beaded mobile to celebrate color, pattern, and movement.

Throwback Dance Party at Skip's: We Still Got It, We Just Start Earlier

Remember when a "night out" meant starting at 11pm? Pre-game at 9, cab at 10:30, and somehow still closing down the dance floor?

Yeah - same.

Welcome to the glow-up version of that era: a dance party designed for parents who still love to dance but want the evening to start after dinner because weekends are packed, mornings come early, and we rarely rally at 1am anymore.

Expect:

-A live DJ upstairs at Skip's on the Avenue to keep you dancing

- All the throwback songs from the 90s and 00s you loved and still love
- Enough time to dance hard and still wake up ready to shuffle the kids to all the weekend activities

Fun guaranteed. Beer, wine and cocktails are available for purchase.

When: Friday, May 8, 7-11pm

Where: Skip's (private room upstairs), 5540 Connecticut Ave NW

Join us on Friday, May 1 for a fun evening with fellow Murch moms! Enjoy a frosty drink (alcoholic or not) and a bite to eat. This outdoor event will have a rain date of Saturday, May 2.
