On Saturday, March 22, from 11:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m., celebrate the cherry blossoms with the Smithsonian American Art Museum! Begin the day on the museum’s 8th and F Street Plaza (weather permitting) with a taiko drumming performance by Nen Daiko. The program continues inside in the Kogod Courtyard for Japanese pop, boogie, and more with Les The DJ. Enjoy other performances while children (ages 12 and younger) make cherry-blossom themed crafts. Seasonal treats are available for purchase from the Courtyard Café. A spring-themed scavenger hunt through SAAM’s galleries extends the fun.
