On the List | November’s Capitol Hill Art Walk and the return of Shop the Hill

Thursday brings the November edition of the Capitol Hill Art Walk for a night of art and creativity on display in your favorite Capitol Hill galleries, bars, restaurants, and cafes.

You can find a map of participating venues and listings at capitolhillartwalk.com.

It’s also a good night to start your search for one of a kind gifts. This year, CHS is again proud to partner with the GSBA for the return of Shop the Hill, our small way of helping to bring attention to the neighborhood’s retailers, artists, and creators. As always, it is free for anybody who wants to be part of the fun. All participants need to do is let us know about neighborhood social media updates. You can also add a free Shop the Hill poster in your window. Stop by Ada’s Technical Books & Cafe, Cone and Steiner, or Perfect Copy & Print for your free poster today.

Looking for more things to do around the neighborhood, check out the CHS Calendar where it is also free to add your events, meetings, and entertainment listings.
