Our rare American chestnuts are a delicacy for our neighborhood squirrels! Did you know we have one of the ~100 remaining American chestnut trees in the country? The tree came with the house and was quite small when H moved in. When she designed and built the annex where the side yard was, she refused to cut down the magnolia or the small tree that was there. We (and the squirrels) are both grateful for that! #nature #hiddendoormuseum #myDCcool

Our mission is to empower people to do what they love — dare to be different — and have fun. We inspire creativity, diversity, and imagination through the fusion of the arts, science, and sports.
The creative process comes in many forms: from the wrinkles on your grandmother’s face to a refugee’s smile in Darfur. Every story has a beautiful lining that we can all learn from, and share with each other. We seek to reshape how people see and connect with the beauty of the world around them, starting from their power, within.Together we can achieve things beyond what we know.
