TAP-DC & TANG Summer Potluck Picnic at Kenilworth Park & Aquatic Gardens – Washington, DC

TAP-DC and TANG are joining together for a summer outing and welcome everyone to join us!

Bring your favorite dish to share and hang out with us in the park. Late June is prime time at the gardens. Water lilies will be in full bloom, and the sea of lotus flowers will be starting their spectacular summer show. Come enjoy a relaxing afternoon, share a meal together, and take a leisurely walk around the aquatic gardens at your own pace.

Blankets are highly encouraged so we can spread out under the shade. We can’t wait to catch up with everyone and make new friends!
