Save the date. Our next Strategic Planning Workshop is on August 1, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM, in Kensington, MD.

We bring together senior leaders from DC-area nonprofits for a full day of cross-organizational strategic planning. They share strengths and opportunities, find common ground, and leave with real next steps.

No outside speakers, no guest experts. It's the people who show up, talking through their own organizations' work.

Looks like more of the President's fine people coming in to Washington DC to celebrate the birth of our nation today.

Stamen recently collaborated with MetroMatch, a transit-first navigation tool focused on identifying destinations within walking distance of transit in U.S. cities. Read about how we redesigned their map for Washington, DC on the blog.

Now we get sudden afternoon rains like in the tropics? But climate change isn't real? #thedmv #dcmetro #dcmetroarea

Heads Up: Buses replace trains on part of the Red Line this Weekend - PoPville

Bye, #WMATA / #DCMetro / #Metrorail / whatever the hashtag is. You've been way better than I was expecting (save for a mildly inconvenient track obstruction this morning, barely worth mentioning!)

Suspect a lot of communal knowledge re: "the Metro sucks" is tainted by how bad the system was back in the 2010s?

Really enjoying riding the #silver #DCMetro line out to #Dulles when most people are riding into DC.

Over at Greater Greater Washington, there's this piece that suggests adding a further "Pink" line to the existing "Bloop" proposal
