On Tuesday, Nationals players, coaches and front office executives will come together with partners and supporters to celebrate the excitement of a new baseball season. While tickets to the event are sold out, fans can still join in the fun by attending the red carpet celebration at The Wharf, which will include:
· Music, Nationals mascots and personalities
· Exclusive Nationals giveaways, including memorabilia and Opening Day tickets
· And the opportunity to meet Washington Nationals players, coaches and special guests as they walk the red carpet.
Celebrate the Washington Nationals home opener with Atlas Brew Works Half Street Brewery & Tap Room, located steps from National Park’s Center Field gate. The solar-powered brewery will open its doors at 9am on Thursday, March 30, to allow for guests to start the celebrations early.
Atlas Brew Works will release a new limited beer for the occasion, Opening Day Lager. With a 4.6% ABV, Opening Day Lager is a pilsner brewed with Huell Melon hops and has notes of honeydew, lime, and orange peel, perfect for an early start to summer.

Living Earth Festival 2023: Native Nations Confronting Climate Change
Saturday, April 22 and Sunday, April 23, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
From water scarcity to floods and erosion, Native nations are addressing climate change across Indian Country. During the Living Earth Festival, join the museum for a weekend of conversations, demonstrations, and artmaking to learn how Indigenous communities are stepping forward with aggressive plans to protect their ways of life.
Throughout the weekend, visitors can hear directly from Indigenous climate and agriculture experts as they discuss how their communities have always demonstrated respect for the Earth with sustainability in mind. Presenters show how traditional knowledge and practices are being adapted to a changing climate and feed the world’s growing population at the same time. Working artists will engage visitors in communal artmaking using found materials once destined for landfills to create new and unique works of art.
