Hello, Dolly!
November 19, 2025
Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD 20832, USADolly Gallagher Levi is a woman on the make. And what’s she making? Whatever you need. A husband? A wife? Dance lessons? Pierced ears? There’s never been a more indefatigable figure in American musical theatre, and perhaps that’s why the role has served as a vehicle for some of our greatest stars, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand to Bette Middler. Now, the DMV’s reigning musical superstar, Nova Y. Payton (World Goes 'Round), takes on the title role of a musical that churns out laughs, songs, and over-the-top antics as fast as humanly possible…and then goes a little faster. Audiences of all ages are guaranteed a great time at this classic musical about love, second chances, and the magic of an adventure to the big city! -

Bridgette Guerzon Mills “Touch the Earth”
November 21, 2025 10:00 am - 4:00 pm
Artists & Makers Studios, 11810 Parklawn Dr Suite 210, Rockville, MD 20852, USAArtists & Makers Studios is thrilled to host Bridgette Guerzon Mills for the month of November. The exhibit will run from November 5th through November 25th, with a First Friday opening on November 7th from 5-8pm. Creating the work in “Touch the Earth” brought Bridgette a sense of grounding in these uncertain times. The idea of grounding is that when we physically touch the earth, skin to earth, there are benefits to our mental and physical health. Touching the earth brings one into the present moment. These pieces explore resilience, mindfulness and gratitude for the beauty and steadfastness of the often-overlooked details of the natural world. These works are about noticing the beauty and the profound in the mundane and fully embracing that mystery. If we allow the earth to hold us, we can reconnect to ourselves and can find stability in an unstable world. Enjoy a Pop-Up with Naan Pocen, the sculptural work of Francis Maduka Uduh in studio 11, along with nineteen Gallery 209 Member Artists exhibiting their latest work. Open Studios building-wide will welcome visitors to visit and learn. Shop and support local working artists, makers, and professionals. Light fare and beverages are generously sponsored by The Chesapeake Framing Company.

Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD 20832, USADolly Gallagher Levi is a woman on the make. And what’s she making? Whatever you need. A husband? A wife? Dance lessons? Pierced ears? There’s never been a more indefatigable figure in American musical theatre, and perhaps that’s why the role has served as a vehicle for some of our greatest stars, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand to Bette Middler. Now, the DMV’s reigning musical superstar, Nova Y. Payton (World Goes 'Round), takes on the title role of a musical that churns out laughs, songs, and over-the-top antics as fast as humanly possible…and then goes a little faster. Audiences of all ages are guaranteed a great time at this classic musical about love, second chances, and the magic of an adventure to the big city! -

The exhibition runs from November 6 – November 30. Gallery hours are Thursdays-Saturdays, 12-5pm, and Sundays 11am-2pm. The gallery will be closed November 27-28 for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Hello, Dolly!
December 2, 2025
Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD 20832, USADolly Gallagher Levi is a woman on the make. And what’s she making? Whatever you need. A husband? A wife? Dance lessons? Pierced ears? There’s never been a more indefatigable figure in American musical theatre, and perhaps that’s why the role has served as a vehicle for some of our greatest stars, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand to Bette Middler. Now, the DMV’s reigning musical superstar, Nova Y. Payton (World Goes 'Round), takes on the title role of a musical that churns out laughs, songs, and over-the-top antics as fast as humanly possible…and then goes a little faster. Audiences of all ages are guaranteed a great time at this classic musical about love, second chances, and the magic of an adventure to the big city! -

Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD 20832, USADolly Gallagher Levi is a woman on the make. And what’s she making? Whatever you need. A husband? A wife? Dance lessons? Pierced ears? There’s never been a more indefatigable figure in American musical theatre, and perhaps that’s why the role has served as a vehicle for some of our greatest stars, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand to Bette Middler. Now, the DMV’s reigning musical superstar, Nova Y. Payton (World Goes 'Round), takes on the title role of a musical that churns out laughs, songs, and over-the-top antics as fast as humanly possible…and then goes a little faster. Audiences of all ages are guaranteed a great time at this classic musical about love, second chances, and the magic of an adventure to the big city! -

Tiny Tots in Tiaras and Tuxedos—Author Francene Hill Speaks at The Writer’s Center
December 8, 2025 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
The Writer's Center, 4508 Walsh St, Bethesda, MD 20815, USAJoin local author, Francene Mary Diane Hill, as she shares insights into her new biography, Tiny Tots in Tiaras and Tuxedos: The Life, Love, and Business Success of Kermit B. Hill, at The Writer’s Center in Bethesda on Monday, December 8, 2025, at 7:00 – 8:30 pm. This creative biography tells the story of the author's mother, Kermit B. Hill, an African American woman entrepreneur with an unforgettable name. Kermit broke racial and gender barriers, rising from segregated Arkansas to guarding wartime secrets at the Pentagon during World War II. She went on to found and lead the groundbreaking Tiny Tot Nursery School of St. Louis for six decades.
Drawing from her parents’ 80 personal love letters, hundreds of photographs, and original War Department files, Francene traces Kermit’s journey. The book reveals her path from a juvenile probation officer in segregated Arkansas, to dancing the Lindy Hop in juke joints, and ultimately becoming the founder of Tiny Tot Nursery School.
Attendees will listen to Francene read examples from Tiny Tots in Tiaras and Tuxedos and learn how she transformed genealogy records, weather reports, and newspaper clippings into this creative biography. She will also discuss her dilemma regarding the inclusion of real names in true intimate situations from her mother’s past.

Hello, Dolly!
December 10, 2025
Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD 20832, USADolly Gallagher Levi is a woman on the make. And what’s she making? Whatever you need. A husband? A wife? Dance lessons? Pierced ears? There’s never been a more indefatigable figure in American musical theatre, and perhaps that’s why the role has served as a vehicle for some of our greatest stars, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand to Bette Middler. Now, the DMV’s reigning musical superstar, Nova Y. Payton (World Goes 'Round), takes on the title role of a musical that churns out laughs, songs, and over-the-top antics as fast as humanly possible…and then goes a little faster. Audiences of all ages are guaranteed a great time at this classic musical about love, second chances, and the magic of an adventure to the big city! -

Gallery B Presents "Color + Light, Part Two"
December 14, 2025 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
Gallery B, 7700 Wisconsin Ave E, Bethesda, MD 20814, USAPainters Kathleen Byrnes and Jennifer Howard exhibit their works at Gallery B in November 2025 Kathleen Byrnes has taken to working plein aire, challenging her to work quickly and spontaneously. Byrnes uses the environment to infuse the canvas with mood and emotion. Working in predominantly oil, Byrnes has produced works that explore the light and structure of urban Washington DC, the Virginia and Maryland country side, as well as the inlets, bay, ocean and marshlands of Southern New Jersey. Jennifer Howard is a painter and graphic designer who has lived and worked in Washington, DC for over 37 years. Her paintings are about the moment, the immediacy of paint applied honestly, thickly and emotionally on canvas. She strives to convey a textural quality to the surface with layers of color and an emphasis on capturing light.
The exhibition runs from November 6 – November 30. Gallery hours are Thursdays-Saturdays, 12-5pm, and Sundays 11am-2pm. The gallery will be closed November 27-28 for the Thanksgiving holiday.

These times are not forgotten, and GFAA members are excited to exhibit their work in a show titled “Small Images Bring Joy”. A Mini-Solo exhibit for Cathy Hirsh and Nancy Jakubowski, titled “Over the Rainbow” will open in the Lounge Gallery.

Hello, Dolly!
December 16, 2025
Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd, Olney, MD 20832, USADolly Gallagher Levi is a woman on the make. And what’s she making? Whatever you need. A husband? A wife? Dance lessons? Pierced ears? There’s never been a more indefatigable figure in American musical theatre, and perhaps that’s why the role has served as a vehicle for some of our greatest stars, from Carol Channing to Barbra Streisand to Bette Middler. Now, the DMV’s reigning musical superstar, Nova Y. Payton (World Goes 'Round), takes on the title role of a musical that churns out laughs, songs, and over-the-top antics as fast as humanly possible…and then goes a little faster. Audiences of all ages are guaranteed a great time at this classic musical about love, second chances, and the magic of an adventure to the big city! -
