Exhibit Dates: May 1—June 22, 2025
Exhibit Location: Cleveland Park Neighborhood Library
The DC Public Library is pleased to host the We Are Your Neighbors exhibit from May 1 to June 23rd at the Cleveland Park Neighborhood Library.
Created by Cleveland & Woodley Park Village to celebrate Older Americans Month, the exhibit shares the stories and faces of eight long-time neighborhood residents. Visitors will find striking portraits displayed outside the library, interactive exhibits inside, and audio recordings where they can hear each person's story in their own voice.
The exhibit is a powerful reminder of the wisdom, history, and contributions of older adults in the Cleveland and Woodley Park communities. Funded in part by a grant from HumanitiesDC, the exhibit also includes special programs led by the Village—great opportunities to connect with older neighbors and explore what aging really looks like in the District.
