On the first Sunday of each month, the National Museum of Women in the Arts drops its $8-10 admission fee and lets the community in for free. That means that this Sunday you’ll get two great exhibitions for the price of none. It’s your last chance to see an exploration beyond Frida Kahlo’s portraits and into her personal life called Frida Kahlo: Public Image, Private Life.
The collection includes personal items, like photographs of her house in Mexico and letters to her mother describing her first time talking on a telephone. Just beginning at the NMWA is WACK! Art and the Feminist Revolution, the first major exhibition to explore feminism in post-war art and the largest exhibition in the museum’s history. The NMWA is located at 1250 New York Avenue, N.W., two blocks north of Metro Center.
