Please join us for another walking mural tour but this time it’s indoors at the Clinton Federal Building. The current home of the EPA boasts an impressive collection of New Deal era murals, including over 20 paintings and frescoes that depict a “romantic history” of the U.S. Postal Service. This is a rare opportunity to see a full program of murals in their original context. The tour offers a unique snapshot of America in the 1930s that captures the hopes, ideals, and ingrained cultural attitudes of the country at that time.

The tour starts at the top of the Federal Triangle Metro exit, which comes up just underneath of the Clinton Building. If you plan to take the Metro, we’ll meet in the Bethesda station on the train platform by 9:10am. Please let Stephanie know if you plan to take the Metro with us.

RSVP by Sunday, Nov 12 Limit is 12 people. Everyone will need a photo ID and should expect a brief security screening. A list of attendees will be submitted. Please let me know if you are a foreign national. Questions? Contact Stephanie.
