So much to see, so much to do. So many great things to taste, touch, listen to, or just plain experience. No matter the time of year you are in DC, you'll find something interesting or fun to attend: a neighborhood festival, a commemorative event from MLK Day to Veteran's Day, an opportunity to sample the best food DC's culinary experts have to offer, and a chance to fly a kite on the National Mall.
