The Arts Club of Washington is proud to host this event as part of International House Museum Days, April 2026.
International House Museum Days is a global initiative dedicated to celebrating historic houses, houses of memory, and the figures they commemorate. Hundreds of house museums around the world come together to share in this celebration, led by the Italian National Association of Houses of Memory (Italy) with the International Council of Museums (Committees for Historic House Museums and of Literary and Composers Museums).
Since its founding in 1916, the Arts Club of Washington has called 2017 I Street, N.W. home. Join us on a guided tour of the historic clubhouse to learn more about the Arts Club, its activities and the distinguished men and women who have been members. We will also discuss some of the fabled residents of the two mansions the Club now occupies, including President James Monroe and his First Lady Elizabeth, and Civil War General Robert MacFeely.
