Weekend Picks

Saturday
Head down to our second home - the Front Page - to watch the DC Idiotarod. Registration is already closed so we will have to join in on the fun next year, but I'm sure it will be just as fun as a spectator. Teams will race around the city in decked-out shopping carts going from bar to bar all for charity.

Saturday Night
The ONLY place to be Saturday night is at the Spy Lounge. From what I understand, there are 4 fabulous people who are all celebrating their birthdays with a killer party there. Make sure to wish them a happy birthday and buy them free drinks!

Sunday
If you aren't hungover from Saturday night's birthday bash like most of us will be, then head down to the National Gallery of Art to check out the Rembrandt's Prints and Drawings Exhibition before it ends March 18th. While you are there, make sure you head to the East Building on the Concourse Level for some gelato!

Sunday Night
Another Birthday will be celebrated this weekend. Marian McPartland's 89th Birthday celebration will include a concert and special guests at the Kennedy Center. For those who don't know, Marian McPartland is a pianist who has a weekly show on NPR called Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz. Random fact: Piano Jazz is produced in Columbia, SC at ETV, which is where I also interned one summer. Half of my time during the internship was spent working on Piano Jazz so I got to edit a few of her shows.
