Georgetown Glow: A New Season of Light
Since 2014, Georgetown has hosted a seasonally changing art and light exhibition called Georgetown Glow. For each season – summer, fall, winter and spring – Georgetown Glow displays the work of local artists throughout the neighborhood. This spring, visitors can admire five art and light displays placed throughout the neighborhood as you shop and dine. You can even sign up for guided walking tours of the art.

Georgetown GLOW, the free outdoor public art exhibition, will return for its seventh edition on April 2. The six-month series will feature a majority of D.C. artists, with five artworks exhibited in the spring and three in the summer.
The work will be displayed throughout the commercial district in the spring and in Georgetown’s public alleys in the summer.
“We’re thrilled to bring a new season of light to Georgetown with a safer and more comfortable GLOW experience this Spring – and one that shines a spotlight on several local artists,” said Nancy Miyahira, vice president and marketing director for the Georgetown Business Improvement District.
