A Vibrant Home for Culture, Education,
and City Life on Capitol Hill.
Like any real estate agent worth her salt will tell you, “location, location, location” is everything when it comes to self-promotion. We suspect the folks at the fledgling Hill Center (921 Pennsylvania Ave. SE) would agree — particularly because their shiny newness and proximity to award-wining local restaurants has helped them welcome a parade of wildly talented tastemakers to their nascent demonstration kitchen. The abandoned Old Naval Hospital facility sprang back to life last fall.
Last night the Hill Center kicked off its first art exhibit, Five Artists * Five Points of View, showcasing artwork including photography, painting and collage by world-renowned artists, many with ties not only to the Washington area but to Capitol Hill. If you miss Alan Braley’s large color-saturated canvases at The Village at Eastern Market, you’ll find them here.
VIENNA, Va., November 26, 2011 — If Seaman Benjamin Drummond awoke today at the Old Naval Hospital in Washington, DC, he would think, like Rip Van Winkle, that he’d been asleep 100 years. And he would be correct.
