Attended a chamber music concert of Thomas Jeffersons favorites. Musicians were in period costume. Wonderful performance with harpsichord, violin & cello. Sopranist was awesome. Was hoping for a little Foggy Mountain Breakdown but it didnt happen.

The programs at the Hennnage are well-worth attending. Whether its a musical program or a visit with George and Martha Washington or the Jeffersons, its time well spent.

Really great museum of decorative arts (antique furniture). Super tour guide. Folk art and fine art well presented. My second time there and I loved it. They are expanding so there is much construction near. This might double the museum size.
