The
Dupont-Kalorama Museums Consortium
was formed in 1983 to help promote the
Washington, D.C.
museums that are not located on the
National Mall
. Most of the museums are located in the historic
Dupont Circle
and
Kalorama
neighborhoods near
Embassy Row
and the group has grown from its original seven museums in the 1980s
[1]
to its current total of nine. Among the group's most notable events is the free Museum Walk Weekend, held annually on the first full weekend in June.
