THEARC

Washington, DC

LoginSave

The Town Hall Education, Arts and Recreation Campus (THEARC) has been a cornerstone for community redevelopment in River East and Far Southeast. A multipurpose community center, arts education campus and performance space, the sleek building was the first one of its kind in what was then a neglected area of town. If you want a sense of the pulse of contemporary African American DC, catch a show or see one of the center鈥檚 frequent special exhibitions.

THEARC is about a half-mile from the closest Metro; it鈥檚 easiest to drive here.
