Art and Cultural Events Abound in Northern Virginia This Spring

With the warm weather making its way back to Northern Virginia, it's time to get out and explore the scenery, the shops and restaurants, and of course, the events! 

For the remainder of April, there are dozens of arts and cultural events to attend in NoVA, from art shows to plays to exhibits at local museums. Below are just a few that you can mark on your calendar this month and truly enjoy the culture that the NoVA communities have to offer:

This group, popular since the 1960's, is making a five-day appearance at the Signature Theatre to perform a collection of both oldies and monologues.
