Travel Tuesday: Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts 73
The Kennedy Center is local for us, it is less than 10 miles drive, about 25 minutes if traffic is flowing. We go 5-10 times a year. Mostly to the Concert Hall, there are multiple theaters and venues in the Center.
Back in my teaching days, the 8th graders took and end-of-the-year field trip to Gettysburg and Washington DC. One of our stops was the Kennedy Center. What a marvelous venue. I have a goal to attend a performance there. The balcony that overlooks the Potomac has beautiful views.
Just think - when you are retired you will be able to audition for that choir. Perhaps you will become a soloist. Rural Michigan's answer to Luciano Pavarotti?
It's next to a lake? What a nice setting for a fine building.

DeleteI have so many great memories of performances there and I used to walk by it all the time when I would walk to the mall from Georgetown. What a city.
ReplyDeleteI need to see more of it.
DeleteHow great having that so nearby; we attend several concerts a year at the Koger Center in Columbia and they are always wonderful shows.
