Free Shows at 6 pm on Kennedy Center’s Millenium Stage

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Summers in D.C. are more than a lot of fun, activities are often FREE.  Did you know the Kennedy Center (yes, the one you watch on TV and read about in the papers) has a FREE SHOW from 6 pm - 7 pm everyday! They call it the “Millennium Stage,” and just like the far-reaching, lesser known meaning of millennium, your time at this Kennedy Center venue will bring you GREAT JOY! (In case you didn’t get that, millennium can mean more than a thousand years … it’s lesser known meaning is “a period of great happiness or human perfection” … no worries, we were surprised, too … LOL)

In the month of June, visitors to the Millennium Stage can look forward to performances from the Blue Eyed Soul Dance Company of the United Kingdom, the band Forró No Escuro playing Brazilian dance music, the Fairfax Wind Symphony, Deviated Theatre, the U.S. Navy Band, and so much more.  For additional information, visit http://www.kennedy-center.org/programs/millennium/schedule.html.

(And don’t forget, if you stay at the American Guest House, you’ll be only a hop, skip, and a jump away from the fun.  Our convenient location near Dupont Circle and Adams Morgan makes us one of the best stops in DC!)

Enjoy your trip!
