Weekend Picks: NPR, Persian New Year and a teddy bear concert

March 7, 2014

The weekend we’ve been looking forward to for months: Daylight Savings! Also, known as a time parents dread because they have to get their child back on a sleep schedule, adapting to the time change. The weather should be warm and sunny on Saturday. A perfect time to take advantage of the free admission to Dumbarton Oaks 1703 32nd St NW, Washington, DC 20007. Between 2:00pm-5:00pm (Sunday as well) you can roam the gardens and run the long lawns. MehQcBs5qeckHhfNPKw6YwO1okpH7U9HCWzgTA3lCjKAybpB-oz_WYRgMOwtlfZTlVDoTQ=s114

Saturday:

(Charles E. Smith Center at GWU 600 22nd St NW, Washington, DC. 20052)
STEMosphere is a FREE one-day event where students, parents, educators and lifelong learners of all ages can join us for a public exhibition of fun, interactive, STEM-inspired activities. Learn anatomy by layering clay on realistic models. Experiment with the world’s first interactive projector. Get your hands dirty with an environmental service-learning project.

10:00am-3:00pm- Family Day: The Great Escape at The Corcoran Gallery of Art
(500 17th St., NW, Washington, D.C.)
Escape to Paris, New York, and the Wild West without leaving DC! Families will experience these destinations through live performances, in-gallery activities, and hands on art workshops. Featuring special performances of My Grandfather’s Circuis by Zany Umbrella Circrus and a masquarde salon by Project Enlightenment, this celebration will higlight some of the D.C. area’s best art, dance, and music. This FREE, amazing adventure is inspired by the exhibition American Journeys: Visions of Place. All ages are welcome.
