Come join US for a tour of THE KREEGER MUSEUM as part of DOCOMOMO DC ARCHITECTURAL TOURS!ABOUT THIS EVENT _*DOCOMOMO DC ARCHITECTURAL TOUR: THE KREEGER MUSEUM_* Join DOCOMOMO DC FOR AN IN-person guided tour of the _*KREEGER MUSEUM__ , one of Washington, DC’s most celebrated examples of mid-century modern architecture. This special tour offers a rare opportunity to explore the architectural vision of __PHILIP JOHNSON__ and __RICHARD FOSTER_* , who collaborated on the museum’s design in the 1960s. Nestled on five acres of sculpture-dotted gardens, the museum blends the elegance of modernist design with materials that connect the building to its natural surroundings, including travertine marble and teak. Johnson’s integration of clean geometry, natural light, and formal procession reflects his shift toward monumentality and contextual sensitivity during this era. Following the tour, we’ll gather in the garden (weather permitting) for informal networking and conversation about _*DOCOMOMO DC MEMBERSHIP AND BOARD OPPORTUNITIES_* . _*TICKETS:_* $15 at the door for museum entrance. DOCOMOMO DC IS COVERING THE ADDITIONAL COST OF THE GUIDED TOUR. _*REGISTRATION:__ Event is __LIMITED TO 25 PARTICIPANTS__ . __OPEN TO BOTH MEMBERS AND NON-MEMBERS._* _*GETTING THERE:_* Visit the Kreeger Museum website for details on parking, public transportation, and accessibility.
