Comedy Hack Day (CHD) started in 2012 with the goal of bringing technology-embracing comedians and comedy-loving developers together into one collaborative, fun environment. Created by Cultivated Wit, a company started by a few folks from The Onion, CHD has grown from its first day-long event in NY to several weekend-long events in LA, San Francisco and at MIT. Now we’re bringing it to DC. "CHD DC" is the open version of Comedy Hack Day. We’re gathering comedians, designers, and developers to build hilarious tech products—apps, sites, search engines, etc. At the end of it all, the finalists will demo their ideas in a full- fledged comedy show complete with audience members and guest judges. It’s loads of fun and we want you to be part of it.

Let’s talk ‘Space to Dream’ East of the River - Arts Education, Public Arts Space, Resources for Artists and more! Join the Deputy Mayor for Greater Economic Opportunity, and the Interim Director of the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, in a conversation on the endless possibilities for artists in Wards 7 & 8. We invite you to participate, ask questions, share ideas, and visualize the opportunities!
