For over a decade, the Anacostia Arts Center has been more than a space. It’s been a home, a launchpad, a creative sanctuary, and a gathering place. As we prepare for a major renovation, we invite you to reflect with us on the stories, faces, and voices that have shaped this beloved space.
“Beautiful, also, are the souls” is a powerful photo and oral history exhibit honoring the artists, entrepreneurs, and community members who have made the AAC a cultural anchor in Ward 8. Produced in partnership with The DAP Project and generously supported by HumanitiesDC, this exhibit is a celebration of community, memory, and legacy.
