Today's construction update from the Anacostia Arts Center

Lots to do to get the Anacostia Arts Center ready for its first event - the DO GOOD SUMMIT on Friday, May 3rd! Good news is that construction is ahead of schedule! Yeah! We have already signed a lease with a wellness group that will be holding yoga classes in one of the commercial spaces and one of the commercial suites will be available for short-term rentals such as pop-up galleries and special events.

The Anacostia Arts Center is a project of arts and culture nonprofit ARCH Development Corporation. The new arts center is located in a former Woolworth building located at 1231 Good Hope Rd SE.
