Yes, still. I will update soon. Someday.

Just a couple weeks left!

Ten Miles Square is doing a four square at Windows Cafe -- between nature and street photography, and portrait and action shots. Jo Ann Tooley's serene black and white outdoor images play up the colors of Tracy Clayton's urban scenes, while Katy Ray's playful, feminine models increase the brutality of Brian Knight's adventure race crashes.

Windows Cafe is at 101 Rhode Island Avenue NW. Take the metro to Shaw on the Green line and your art + music walk starts a few blocks away, just keep walking up Rhode Island Ave.

Running through the end of August. Come check us out!

At the fair, people can fly.
