RECESS; Walk and Talk with Elements & Dumbarton Oaks Park Conservancy

  • Dumbarton Oaks Park Rose Garden 3041-3085 R St NW Washington, DC, 20007 United States (map)

RECESS

Join Elements and Liza Gilbert of the Dumbarton Oaks Park Conservancy for a guided walk and talk. Discover the natural and designed treasures of Dumbarton Oaks Park. Liza will share all that has been done by DOPC and the National Park Service to revive the original designs of Beatrice Farrand and why this land is considered an urban oasis for all.  

"As a “naturalistic,” but intensely designed landscape of meadows, woodlands, bulbs and wildflowers, paths and ponds, and constructed waterfalls, Dumbarton Oaks Park offers recreation as well as restorative quiet, beauty, and inspiration for Washington, DC residents and visitors from beyond."

  • Please meet at 4:15 at the Rose Garden directly across from the Jackson Arts Center on R Street in Georgetown.

  • Mileage; 2 (+/-) miles/27 acres of hilly terrain and at times rooty and rocky paths.

  • Dress for the weather
