3rd Street Southwest & Maryland Avenue Southwest

Celebrate the transformational power of clay and the evolution of the iconic outdoor sculpture installation Always Becoming (2007) by Nora Naranjo Morse (Kha'p'o Owingeh [Santa Clara Pueblo]) at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian, Saturday and Sunday, April 25–26, 11 AM–5 PM. Join the museum for a weekend of stories, artist demonstrations, hands-on activities, performances, and more centered on the relationship between art and the earth.&nbsp;<a href="https://americanindian.si.edu/events/?trumbaEmbed=view%3Devent%26eventid%3D197221264" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Check out the full schedule of activities</a>.
While at the museum, support sustainability at the&nbsp;Mitsitam&nbsp;Native Foods Cafe. This April, chef Alex Strong is commemorating Earth Day with a special&nbsp;Chef’s&nbsp;Table on April 22,&nbsp;showcasing&nbsp;seasonal, sustainably sourced&nbsp;ingredients.&nbsp;On April 26, join her again at the&nbsp;Chef’s&nbsp;Table for elk quiche and Southwest quiche.&nbsp;For a sweet treat, enjoy a cherry blossom cupcake&nbsp;from the&nbsp;cafe to&nbsp;celebrate the flavors and beauty of spring in Washington, D.C.&nbsp;
To commemorate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the museum will host programs&nbsp;reflecting on&nbsp;the ever-evolving nature of the country, communities, and future we share through the unique lens of Always Becoming. The&nbsp;site-specific sculptures by Nora Naranjo Morse (Kha'p'o Owingeh [Santa Clara Pueblo]) on the southern exposure of our Washington, D.C.&nbsp;museum were constructed using Native building techniques. Made entirely of natural materials, including clay, straw, sand, soil, and wood, the sculptures were designed to reveal their inner structure over time. Their transitory nature reflects the relationship between Indigenous cultures and the land.&nbsp;
This project received funding from the Smithsonian’s <a href="https://www.si.edu/250" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Our Shared Future: 250</a>, a Smithsonian-wide initiative supported by private philanthropy and created to commemorate the nation’s 250th anniversary and advance the Smithsonian vision for the next 250 years.&nbsp;

Arlington Language School Marks 40th Anniversary

ICA Language Services

ICA Language Services (ICA), a family-owned, woman-led small business based in Arlington, is celebrating its 40th anniversary, marking decades of supporting the U.S. military and diplomatic community through language training and testing. Founded in April 1986 as Inlingua Foreign Language Center, a 6-classroom language school, ICA expanded under the leadership of Deidre Doyle, an entrepreneur with a background in organizational management who joined the company the same year. As a military spouse, she had developed a deep understanding of military organizations and culture, helping shape ICA into a trusted provider of language training and testing for military professionals. Doyle became a partner in 1993 and sole owner in 2009, when she changed the name to ICA Language Services. Today, ICA operates a 60+ classroom schoolhouse in Rosslyn and has delivered nearly five million hours of language instruction and more than 30,000 language assessments across 120+ languages. ICA also provides training on military bases throughout the US and abroad. The company is now led by President and CEO Lexie Casey, Doyle’s daughter, who joined ICA in 2009 after a decade in government contracting.

Conflict Resolution Support for Families and Organizations

Rogers Resolution Services

Hi, I'm Shelby! I’m a local mediator who helps neighbors resolve family, relationship, and workplace conflicts in a calm, structured way. Through my small business, Rogers Resolution Services, I offer mediation and conflict-resolution support tailored to your unique needs and help guide people through difficult conversations. I work primarily with co-parents, partners, relatives, roommates, and teams who need help talking through decisions, routines, boundaries, or recurring disagreements. I also support workplaces and community groups facing communication challenges or breakdowns. My role is neutral. I don’t give legal advice or take sides. I facilitate conversations, de-escalate tense situations, and help people reach practical and maintainable agreements they can feel comfortable with. Services include: • Family, community, and workplace mediation • Co-parenting communication planning • Conflict coaching (one-on-one support) • Group and organizational facilitation • Workplace and team communication support Please feel free to reach out if you or a neighbor need help with repairing communication, setting boundaries, and/or creating a healthier dynamic at home or at work. Thank you for reading, and I look forward to helping you!
