DAR Headquarters, including the DAR Museum and DAR Library, will be closed to the public on Saturday, June 13 
due to street closures and access restrictions connected with an area event. Additionally, street traffic and parking 
in the area will be significantly restricted in the days leading up to and following the weekend events.

Portico

The Portico, our outdoor area, is located directly adjacent to the O'Byrne Gallery, and offers a magnificent view of the Washington Monument. One important feature of our Portico is the covered rotunda. This area can be used for cocktails, dinner, or dancing, even when the weather isn't perfect.
