About The Event

Spend Saturday, October 14 at the DC History Center’s annual community day, On the Square! Located on Mount Vernon Square—where multiple neighborhoods intersect—and neighbors and friends connect to reflect on the past, celebrate today’s vibrant communities, and dream of a more just future.

Begin with an exploration of the DC History Center inside the Carnegie Library. Listen in on pop-up talks in THE BIG PICTURE, examine resources in the Kiplinger Research Library, get crafty in Memorial Hall. At 1:30 pm, join the DC History Center in collaboration with Apple in the first floor forum for a workshop with local poets Sami Miranda and Kenneth Carroll. Afterward, venture into the nearby neighborhoods with our reward card in-hand. Visit participating cultural sites and local businesses for more activities, freebies, and discounts!
