We’re still in the belly of FotoWeek DC, with three more days of photography goodness going on all around the city. We’ll round-up a few not-to-be-missed events, then see how the art world plans on transitioning back to normal.
FotoWeek
Ongoing: Be sure to check out Night Gallery DC, with projections all over town (tonight at SAAM; tonight through Saturday at the National Museum of American History). Fotoweek Central is open late tonight, to 9 p.m., so go see the many big name exhibits at 3333 M Street NW and the finalists’ exhibit at 3338 M Street NW. PixTour features work of local photographers all over the city through the end of the week; find your neighborhood haunts and check them out. And don’t forget the many, many embassies, galleries and museums hosting exhibits.
Thursday
- Tonight head over to the Sewall-Belmont House and Museum for the opening of Women by Women: A Juried Exhibition of the Women Photojournalists of Washington (WPOW), featuring a silent auction of their prints. 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
- Catch one of two interesting lectures: Irvine Contemporary talks with photographer Kerry Skarbakka about his new series of work, Fight Club, along with Martin Irvine and Lauren Gentile from the gallery, and collector Henry Thaggert. Champagne reception to follow. 6:30 to 8 p.m. Or head over to the Center for Digital Imaging Arts to hear Mirjam Evers from Photo Quest Adventures discuss Travel Photography and Photo Trekking Internationally. 7 to 9 p.m.
- Or if you’re more in the celebrating mood, head over to the grand opening of LUMAS in Georgetown. This international agency represents over 120 photographers and will surely be hosting the party to be at tonight.
