Capital Hilton Welcomes Fall with New Guest Experiences and Art Gallery

Capital Hilton Welcomes Fall with Exciting Programs and Unique Art Installation

As the vibrant colors of autumn take over, Capital Hilton in Washington D.C. is ready to embrace the season. With an array of guest activities and a striking new art installation, the hotel invites visitors to experience the essence of fall like never before. This season, Capital Hilton is not only celebrating the breezy autumn weather but also promoting local culture by unveiling La Galerie on K, the hotel's newly established art gallery that showcases the works of talented photographers affiliated with the D.C. Bird Alliance.

Embracing Local Culture

The D.C. Bird Alliance is a community-driven nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering an appreciation for birds throughout the District of Columbia. The organization connects people with nature, making it a fitting partner for the hotel's seasonal programming. With a stunning exhibit featuring photographs from both novice and seasoned bird watchers, La Galerie on K transforms the hotel’s lobby into a vibrant window to the natural beauty that surrounds the city. Images of local avian residents like cardinals, hawks, and woodpeckers resonate with guests, encouraging them to look up and notice the incredible wildlife present in urban life.

Paolo Pedrazzini, the general manager of Capital Hilton, expressed the significance of this partnership: “Teaming up with a local organization lets us showcase both art and the richness of nature that exists within our community. This installation brings the beauty of autumn indoors and enriches our guests' experiences.” Through this collaboration, guests are prompted to engage with the installations and recognize the nuances of urban wildlife.

In the words of Maria-Elena Montero, President of the D.C. Bird Alliance, “Once you notice birds, you can't unsee them; the city feels more alive. And when a place feels alive, we take better care of it and everything that calls it home.” This quote encapsulates the ambition behind the gallery: to celebrate nature and the shared responsibility of caring for the urban ecosystem.

In addition to the art exhibition, Capital Hilton has lined up a series of exciting events for guests to relish the fall season.
