Golden Triangle Fall Events Take Center Stage with Art Ave

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On September 10, the Golden Triangle Business Improvement District (BID) will officially open Art Ave, an immersive, outdoor destination connecting the White House to Dupont Circle through public art, vibrant street life, and creative experiences that will run through January 2026. And the launch is just the beginning.

As part of Art Ave, the Golden Triangle BID is rolling out a full fall lineup of interactive activities and cultural performances, wellness programming, and family-friendly events designed to amplify the energy in downtown DC and welcome residents, workers, and visitors to the heart of the city.

All events are free and open to the public, inviting people to gather, move, and connect. The activities represent a focus on creating fun experiences that draw more people into the central office corridor and support goals for downtown vibrancy aligned with Mayor Bowser’s Growth Agenda.

Funded through the DC Office of Planning’s Streets for People grant program, Art Ave will include not only this dynamic calendar of events but also interactive public artworks and curated outdoor furnishings.

“Art Ave is an example of a partnership that harnesses one of our greatest assets – our public space—to make downtown DC a great place to live, play, work, and visit,” said Office of Planning Director Anita Cozart.

The fall events in Farragut Square offer something for everyone, combining creative expression with awe-inspiring experiences in one of DC’s most dynamic neighborhoods.

“Art Ave is about creating a canvas for connection,” said Leona Agouridis, President & CEO of the Golden Triangle BID. “From live drumming and storytelling to yoga in the park, these events augment the magnificent outdoor art gallery and are a celebration of the city’s creative spirit and our public spaces.”
