Hidden Bank Vault Speakeasy Date Night

Visitors to ARTECHOUSE DC can immerse themselves in cutting-edge art combining technology and storytelling, with interactive exhibits and themed cocktails.

Immersive Art Exhibit

💪 Pro tips:
• The museum is fully ADA accessible
• It’s a bit difficult to find the front door, so look for Potbelly and then go in to the left of the awnings.
• Grab seat cushions from the back corner if all the benches are taken.
• Stick around for a drink at their XR bar (booze and booze-free available!)
