The Boro (Tyson’s) has an Instagram-able art and light installation that last through the month of December. This one is perfect for photo opps! Guests walk through giant interactive gift boxes wrapped with bright bows, festive cutouts, and glowing lights. And while you’re there, check out the space where the new mural by Jessie + Katey — one of the largest murals in the DC area — is coming next Spring. That’s sure to spark some joy.
