Arts Club of Washington, Cultural organization in Washington D.C., United States.
Arts Club of Washington is a cultural organization housed in a Federal-era building with four gallery spaces and rooms for concerts, theater productions, and visual art classes. The spaces rotate between exhibitions, performances, and educational programs throughout the year.
The organization was founded in 1916 as one of the first in Washington D.C. to include women in leadership positions from the start. This early commitment to gender equality shaped the institution's identity from its inception.
The club brings together artists and art lovers by presenting multiple art forms in one location throughout the year. Visitors experience how music, theater, and visual art naturally connect and inform each other in daily programming.
Visitors can attend free or low-cost events featuring concerts, exhibitions, theater, dance, and writing programs available year-round. The multiple gallery spaces mean different shows and performances run simultaneously, giving you options to explore.
The club is housed in the former residence of President James Monroe, now designated as a National Historic Landmark. Walking through these rooms connects visitors directly to early American presidential history while attending modern art events.
