Finally, an art gallery whose name basically tells you what to expect…read more I just went to their "Small Treasures" exhibit which featured a number of their artists where some of the work was on sale. The prices were very good too. That particular show was supposed to close on Dec 31st, but it may be worth a call to see if they have extended it. This gallery specializes in selling art to businesses as well as individuals. This is certainly not the type of stuff that you'll see hanging in a college dorm room or in multiple prints at a poster store.

I go to this gallery every time I am in the area. Never fails to impress me. The variety of mediums…read moreand styles by the contributing artists make it very easy to spend a lot of time ( and money) here.

Mark Phillips and Ryan Phillips were both terrific. The one we voted for did indeed win, but they were both great! The Saturday we were there, there were two performances. We chose the 5pm one. It's a fast-paced show that kept us laughing, intrigued and highly entertained. A very fun, wonderful way to spend entertainment dollars in DC. Not a bad seat in the house! This is downstairs in the historic Mayflower Hotel, nice and close to the Farragut North Metro Stop. Definitely appropriate for all ages. Highly recommend!

This review is for the show at the Writers Center, Bethesda, MD, which doesn't seem to have a Yelp…read morepage of its own. I recognize that the Magic Duel takes huge pride in 5 star reviews on Yelp, which I deeply respect. But I did wish that we had seen the show in a different venue. I am no stage expert, but lights and sound do matter a lot in delivery of a magic show for a skeptic like me, going because the significant other loves magic shows. With better lighting, things would have been more "magical" (thinking bottles.) I was also surprised that a bubble artist, as good as she was in her profession, was considered a magician. After some quick research, you will end up at Magic Duel in this genre, so please go to Dupont or Georgetown.

Not since former NJ governor Brendan Byrne named the Brendan Byrne Arena after himself (and…read moreapproved the NJ state income tax later that year) has a politician and his edifice complex fallen so far so fast. I was there once about eight years ago and honestly, the Kennedy Center is in dire need of upgrading. POTUS is probably right for shutting it down for two years for the repairs but naming the place after himself is fraught with peril for the Grand Old Party. Take it from Brendan Byrne who lost his bid for reelection and is now a fading Garden State footnote. Three cautionary stars.

Attended concert/reception at Romanian Embassy last night. My first Embassy Series event. The…read morefeatured performer (a French violinist) was very fine indeed. Several problems that diminished the experience considerably: a) Piano was poor in sound quality and out-of-tune. A piano tuner came in at intermission to try to improve it for the also very fine accompanist. Only partially successful. Ick! b) Indifferent food cheaply presented and served on the flimsiest paper plates. Uncomfortable chairs for the performance. Romanian Embassy building is nothing special by DC standards. A greater taste of Eastern Europe (or what it used to be) than we wanted. c) Price was high: $95 per ticket. Yeah, it's supposed to be a non-profit, but not a good value. d) Audience dominated by people 70+ in age. They need to find ways to bring younger folks into the Series. e) Minor quibble - they did a marketing stretch on the musical program description. Only partly "Romanian music".
