Join us for the unveiling of a new, epic art installation right in the Shaw neighborhood of DC! Roadside Development (who developed City Market at O) along with Shaw Main Streets and the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities have commissioned a large art installation, that will encompass P Street NW, between 7th and 8th Streets. That's 120 Feet Long by 16 Feet High and created by renown sculpture Zachary Oxman.
The art installation, titled "Symphony in DC Major" will pay homage to the "prolific composer and jazz musician, and DC native Edward “Duke” Ellington; neighborhood namesake and abolitionist Union Army Colonel Robert Gould Shaw; and renowned American Expressionist painter and Shaw Junior High School art teacher, Alma Thomas, whose paintings are exhibited as a part of the collections in the White House and museums around the world.
