And if you want to support the cemetery and its mission\, please consider making a donation. \nLocation: Historic Congressional Cemetery Gatehouse\nTime: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM every other Saturday \nAgenda:\n10:00-10:20: Socializing and Settling in\n10:20-10:30: Introduction to Today’s Exercises/Prompts\n10:30-11:30: Write!\n11:30-12:00: Sharing/Reflecting/Group Discussion \nPlease bring your own preferred method of writing.

SUMMARY:Founding the Federal City: Capital Connections Tour 2025
DESCRIPTION:Established in 1800\, Washington\, D.C. was the fledgling capital of a fledgling nation. Built to house the seats of federal government\, the nation’s capital soon became a city in its own right\, a place where people lived\, worked\, and\, of course\, died. A mix of congressmen\, merchants\, military officers\, diplomats\, architects\, and enslaved individuals comprised the fabric of the new capital\, an experimental mix of people in an experimental new nation. \nWe invite you to experience the lives of the people in the early days of the Federal City in a new special tour of the cemetery grounds. \nPlease come prepared with comfortable and weather appropriate clothing and shoes\, as the tours often stray from the main paths. \nThe cemetery is open to dogs on Sundays. Please be aware of that off-leash dogs will be on the grounds at the time of the tour. \nReservations are required and a tour reservation is a $10 donation. \nSaturday tours begin at 11:00 AM\, rain or shine. Visitors may meet docents at the front gate of the cemetery located at the corner of E St. and Potomac Ave. \nYou May Purchase Tickets Here!
