Washington, D.C’s premier (only?) Irish arts organization, Solas Nua, is once again handing out free copies of books by contemporary Irish authors all day today, in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day. They say they plan to hand out a total of 10,000 books, totally gratis.
Look for them at the following Metro stops: Metro Center, Gallery Place/Chinatown, Dupont Circle, L’Enfant Plaza, Archives/Navy Memorial, Woodley Park/Adams Morgan, Capitol South, Cleveland Park, Foggy Bottom, New York Ave., U Street/Cardozo, and Farragut North.
You can also keep track of which stop they’re at right now via their Twitter feed.
