I came here this past Saturday with my Bonus Dad and had a great time! We had a reservation for 4pm…read moreand parking was only $6 for 2 hours which is excellent for DC. When you walk in the exhibit, it is an open space with a large sunflower backdrop for pictures. After you check in, you can take a more professionalized photo, chose your background and purchase it at the gift shop for $10. It was not crowded at all which is great because it gives you time (and space) to read about the artist Vincent Van Gogh. I learned a lot and saw more replicas of his artwork. Only reason why I had to deduct a star is because there were some evident errors in years posted of his work. One piece said he created a masterpiece in the 1900s and another said he did artwork in 1837 when he wasn't even born yet lol. The best parts of the immersive experience were the 360 room of theatrical lights, the 10 minute Virtual Reality ($5 p/p) and the staff I met along the way. My bonus dad and I spent about 30-40 mins in the room watching the story of Van Gogh's background. I was amazed at the different screens displaying so much I didn't know where to look because every screen was covered. The strobe lights on the floor were emulating birds and rain. The VR was well explained and made comfortable by Perry. At the end of the VR, you then walk into the gift shop and explore a few souvenirs. We met Donnie and Paige there who had wonderful, vibrant personalities. I purchased our pics from the booth earlier and he bought a flask with shot glasses. This was my 1st time at this exhibit and in this area that I saw many cool places to check out later like Metro Bar, a movies theater next door, & an indoor pickle-ball/rollerskate place. The dinosaur exhibit was right next door so don't be frightened if you hear a tyrannosaurus while checking out Van Gogh's work :D

Really cool and unique experience!!! I am so happy I did this!! I learned a lot about my favorite…read moreartist and it was a fairly long experience. It about 1hr - 1hr 30 mins to go through. The first part was info on Van Gogh and his life. There were pictures of a lot of his paintings if not all. It wasn't super crowded, I did the VIP experience which came with a virtual reality portion at the end. You get a head set and it basically goes through another set of info on the artist life. You don't have to do the VIP experience to do it. There's a sign that says $5 at the end to participate. I'm not too sure how much it was in total cause my bf paid but I think it was around $75. My favorite part was the Artechouse house like portion where you have like a 20-30 mins of watch all his paintings, quotes, and inspo on the walls. It's a 360 experience and they provide benches, chairs, blankets, etc.... I'd recommend if you like art exhibits and Van Gogh

It's located just off the Metropolitan Branch Trail in Eckington in a historic building that really was once a horse stable. When you walk in, there's a beautiful lounge area with art hanging on the walls. To the left is a large art galley displaying local art. If you were to go straight, you'd see several small to large art studios on three floors where local artists work out of. All studios are at a more affordable rent. They also offer programs like art classes, lectures, etc.

Such a great addition to the neighborhood…read more.. I walked in to browse and I was very impressed with the range and diversity of new contemporary artists' work in the gallery. The gallery owner and manager were super approachable and friendly. They shared more information about the artists and pieces that I liked. I love seeing and learning more about contemporary art beyond what is seen in museums or read on Hyperallergic, so it's really wonderful to have this in the neighborhood. I've driven by a few times and have seen the collections change, so I realize that I could be dropping in weekly to see more works!

I can't say enough about this gallery. My husband and I recently commissioned three pieces of art…read moreand everything was completed to perfection. The artists , Hugo Pondz, Cabell Molina and Suave Gonzalez were very accommodating and Debbie Morton was a pleasure to work with. She is a true gem and we are thrilled with our incredible artwork.

We had such a great time that we ended up getting married here 3 years later! For several months, we worked with Kyle. He is one of the coolest guys to work with. So accommodating and understanding. He was very patient with us, our family and our wedding coordinator. We had booked the venue before renovations were scheduled, and while we hit some bumps on the road. Kyle was absolutely great. He followed through with everything and made our night happen. The venue has changed so much since our first visit. They acquired more space and turned the back patio into a bar/dance floor. We love the exhibits here and the eclectic vibe. Our wedding was beautiful, unique and so perfect! They do special events, private events and cool exhibits. Located on H Street, right near all the cool spots to eat, drink and shop.

I'd…read morebeen to the other Wohlfarth gallery in Provincetown but never this one; located by Catholic University in the Brookland neighborhood. Gotta say I had a blast at this opening party. The Wohlfarth is two old DC townhouses converted into art space. The Gully Jimson Quartet punk-a-billy band played the opening and there was libations and bbq going on out on the balcony. Girlz Club was founded in 2003 by artist Candace Keegan (http://www.candysart.com). The first group exhibition was held at Wohlfarth Galleries in July 2003 and included Washington DC area artists Judy Jashinsky, Erin Hunter, Emily Greene (pictured standing with her pieces), Rachel Gecan-Rondinelli, Elizabeth Jernigan, Lisa Farrell and Mary Anella Frank. Girlz Club organized a collaborative group project at Artomatic 2004 including an exhibition, performance in homage to Ana Mendiata and a 24 hour arts event. Girlz Club believes in the power of collaborative support for women in the arts. Check out the Wohlfarth and check out the next Girlz Cub artist exhibition.

But the owner, Mrs. Lavinia Wohlfarth was just concluding a meeting and let me in anyway. Super nice lady. She basically gave me a guided tour. Told me to come back anytime. In our short visit, we discovered we were practically neighbors and had common DC histories. I must admit I didn't fully absorb each exhibit to the point where I can regurg their names to review here. But there were some interesting pieces. I'd like to return again and again to stare at and become one with several. But for my visit, it was as good as it gets!

Really cool spot! Came here for a birthday party and learned wheel throwing and it was a blast…read more The class was $80 and our group was taught by an instructor who went over all of the basics. While wheel throwing isn't necessarily easy, it was helpful to have someone go through all of the steps and show us how to make bowls/pots/etc. I was actually surprised when mine turned out to look somewhat like what it was supposed to! I have been trying to get into some of their weekly classes but they are booked up pretty far. Hoping I can get into a class in 2022!

I had no previous experience and it was a wonderful experience! The instructor was able to give specific instructions for those that are left/right handed. They offer different classes/workshops if you check out their website and their studio is open for use on sundays if you want to build on your skills. The studio is larger than expected with plenty of room to get dirty with some clay :)

We decided to stay and check it out, @1pm on a Sunday. Brunch is from 11a-4pm. There was only 1 other person for brunch, when we arrived. There was a DJ was that playing super loud music. Mostly rap music. The food was good. Fresh salad, fruit, meats etc. Unlimited mimosas was $25 per person. We could only order 1 flavor at a time, which there was about 8 flavors. They were good By 3pm, the place was more so filling up. What was crazy was at 4pm, the workers started breaking down the buffet-- quickly!! A group that had arrived @ 3 were caught off guard that brunch was ending. The workers did provide everyone with TAKE HOME Boxes, so we filled our boxes as fast as they were breaking it down lol Hookah guy arrived, think it was a total of $68. The hookah was good Gratuity is automatically included. Our waitress was GREAT! Only thing I didn't like, the place had her walking around in a tight leopard body suit, with her arms out, like this was the Playboy mansion. It was cold in there. I would come back for brunch - just know, there was not a mention of a Buffet brunch online
