The Washington City Paper holds an annual contest to recognize the best local icons, groups and locations in the D.C. area. The Museum has earned the title of “Best Place to Take an Out-of-Towner” in this competition for three years in a row, as well as the runner-up spot for Best Place to Meditate in 2020!
This year, the poll is different in two ways. First, we need to secure nominations to even get on the ballot. Secondly, we would like you to not only nominate the Museum for recognition but, for the first time, the National Bonsai Foundation as well!
Will you take a moment to nominate us for the following?
PEOPLE & PLACES – Best Place to Take an Out-of-Towner: please nominate the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum
PEOPLE & PLACES – Best Place to Meditate: please nominate the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum
ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT – Best Arts & Culture Nonprofit: please nominate the National Bonsai Foundation
Please share this information with your friends and family! Every day, NBF strives to uphold the beauty of the Museum and to promote its trees and historic objects – so more people can experience the beauty and tranquility found among the bonsai and penjing.
Nominations close August 1! If we make it on the ballot, voting for the final title will begin August 19. Thank you for taking the time to honor and share the Museum, an ever-evolving emblem of intercultural understanding and friendship.
