Join us for an inspiring, specially guided experience through Washington, D.C., celebrating the remarkable women who shaped history and the art world. This year’s program has been elevated to a hop-on, hop-off bus tour, offering a more comfortable and accessible way to explore the city while deepening the experience along the way.

Led by A Tour of Her Own, a woman-owned small business dedicated to uncovering women’s history, this curated tour will bring to life the stories of trailblazers who challenged convention, championed progress and influenced politics, journalism and society.

Traveling between the hotel and the National Museum of Women in the Arts, guests will explore newly installed call boxes transformed into public art honoring eight influential women — from Katherine Graham to Alice Paul — before enjoying a private, specially led tour of the museum, featuring extraordinary works that highlight women’s resilience and creativity.

This experience reveals how women’s contributions to government, activism, art and beyond are woven throughout the city — often hidden in plain sight but impossible to overlook once discovered.

Price: Alumni & Guests: $145; Young Guarde (2016-2026) & Guests: $50
