The Washington D.C. Events Calendar

Home is more than a building or an address. It's where you experience life, connection, and growth. And now, more than ever, I'm thrilled to call Washington, D.C. my home. For those who seek the extraordinary, join me in celebrating the art of living with this curated collection of events in and around the Nation's Capital.

Sunday, November 5 | 3pm - 5pm | The Phillips Collection
Film Screening: I Remember Better when I Paint

This 2009 film aims to reframe our attitudes towards dementia, and is inspired by co-director Berna Huebner's mother, a painter in her nineties who lived with dementia and experienced a transformation when she started painting again, reawakening a sense of personality, identity, and dignity. Narrated by Olivia de Havilland, the film shows how creative therapies can bypass damaged parts of the brain. It shows older adults living with Alzheimer's making, viewing, and connecting to art in the Louvre, the Art Institute of Chicago, and The Phillips Collection. Following the screening, there will be a discussion and Q&A. Learn more below:

Each dish will be judged by a panel of culinary icons, and all proceeds go to support DC Central Kitchen.
