The 41 best things to do in D.C. this weekend and next week
This is one of the biggest weekends of the year (so far), with multiple days of St. Patrick's Day parties bumping up against Pi Day, Holi, Nowruz and Women's History Month. We have celebrations of all those events included here, though we also have separate guides to St. Patrick's Day and Pi Day and have included only a few highlights here, so please read those stories for more inspiration. Beyond those holidays, though, we have a Jimmy Buffett-inspired Purim party, a day dedicated to drawing and doodling at the National Building Museum, the Gay Men's Chorus of Washington's spring concert, a booze-free silent book club, a Palestinian-inspired iftar dinner, new museum exhibits, and a festival dedicated to all the delicious ways to enjoy local grain.
