Get Out! Art All Night is busting out all over -- including, for the first time, in Cleveland Park!

 by Peggy Robin

Each week the "Get Out!" column highlights an event of the week, and sometimes it's hard to make the call. Not this week!

The annual arts festival has been running in one form or another since that first one, in 2011, in the Shaw neighborhood. Each year we've seen more and more neighborhoods join in, and this year, at long last, Cleveland Park is in on the fun!

We're on the second night of this two-day Art-a-Palooza:

Saturday, September 30 from 5-10 PM

​The theme of Cleveland Park Art All Night​ is "Small Village/Big Heart​"
