Prior to it becoming the home of The Arts Club of Washington in 1916, this house was occupied by many prominent residents, none more so than President James Monroe and his First Lady Elizabeth Kortright Monroe. This elegant room, originally the house's dining room, is now a gallery for curated works of artists in monthly juried shows
Since its founding in 1916, the Arts Club of Washington has called 2017 I Street, N.W. “home.” Join us on a guided tour of the historic clubhouse to learn more about the Arts Club, its activities and the distinguished men and women who have been members. We will also discuss some of the fabled residents of the two mansions the Club now occupies, including President James Monroe and his First Lady Elizabeth, and Civil War General Robert MacFeely.
