Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
There’s talk of creating an official "arts district" around 14th and U streets in DC. We’ll find out if it’s too late for the arts to survive the strongest real estate market in a generation. Plus… A new study focuses on a group that was neglected during the 2002 census – a survey of the region’s insect population. To get a closer look at bug species crawling around the region, check out the Biodiversity Database of the Washington DC Area.
And… We’ll help plan your arts calendar for this weekend and beyond.
