New Public Sites - Video Tour - DC

New Public Sites WT-DC conclusion/update/pictures

As of this weekend, the OPTIONS Biennial is over and my New Public Sites - Walking Tours - DC have concluded. But this does not mean that project is entirely over. I am continuing to update the online map with clips from the performances and have begun editing a video tour that I plan on uploading in the near future. In the meantime, check out the updated map and these fun pictures from the third walking tour performance. Special thanks to Megan Lavelle for shooting the event!
