Where & When: What to Do This Weekend
Comments () | Published October 29, 2009
Sunday, November 1: Couldn’t quite finish the Marine Corps Marathon last weekend? Grab the family and get back on the horse with the US National Arboretum’s 5K race on Sunday . The 5K costs $25, but the race’s Family Fun Run, where families enjoy a crisp fall morning with a one-mile walk around the Capitol Columns, costs $10. All participants get free T-shirts and can partake in free cooking demonstrations (with samples), crafts, and yoga following the race. Registration begins at 8, the Family Fun Run at 9:15.
We love the National Museum of the Women in the Arts, but it’s hard to go as frequently as we’d like because of the $10 entrance fee. But today—like the first day of every month—admission from noon to 5 is free. Go!
Today’s the second (and last) day of Craft2Wear at the National Building Museum. It’s basically a giant trunk show put on by the Smithsonian, and you’ll find tons of unique jewelry, clothing, and more. Plus, entry is only $5. 10 to 5; check out the site here for more info.
