Saturday, May 31 at 3 PM, The Washington Conservatory Orchestra is giving a free, family-friendly concert at the Westmoreland Congregational United Church of Christ on Westmoreland Circle. The program, which will last about an hour, features works appealing to all. It starts with two movements from Haydn's "Clock" symphony (No. 101), featuring the "tick-tock" theme that gives this work its nickname. Gershwin's jazz-influenced "Lullaby", a suite of "Rosenkavalier" waltzes by Richard Strauss, and a final work by Johann Strauss follow. While the concert is free, the orchestra welcomes donations at the door.
Saturday, May 31 from 5-7 PM, The Adams Morgan Summer Concert Series presents Jelly Roll Mortals, playing a mix of pop, rock, country, folk, and R&B. Free. In the public plaza in front of BB&T Bank at Columbia Rd, Adams Mills Rd and 16th St., http://on.fb.me/1pBCULJ

Monday, June 2, at 1 PM, House of Cards - Card Swap. Do you have a deck of cards that is unusable because it’s missing a card or two? Short a king of spades or an ace of diamonds? At this All-DC card swap you bring cards and get cards. Of course, you better hope to find something with the same design on the back! If not, then leave your unwanted cards for others to take. Maybe someone will build a beautiful house of cards out of your 51-card deck. Bring your cards to the Rayburn House Office Building, 45 Independence Ave SW, but if you find anyone else there looking to trade cards, then you’ve just met up with someone else who’s fallen for this week's fake event.
Thursday, June 5 at 7 PM: Inside Out: Building a Glass House in Russia, a talk by author and Tenley resident Glenn Williamson. Russia is not an easy place to understand, but it can be quite interesting, poignant and even funny at times. Glenn Williamson will discuss his memoir,about the Russian-American partnership which developed the first modern office building in St. Petersburg during the Russian financial crisis in the late 1990s, transforming a historic former monks’ residence into a granite-clad and glass-covered Atrium. Williamson served as general director of the project and lived 10 years in Russia, Poland and Bulgaria with his family.
