Event Overview
Get ready for an unforgettable weekend of beauty, exploration, and reconnection with CSS Members and Alumni, hosted by Common Sense Society in the heart of our nation’s capital on June 2nd and 3rd. Our first-ever weekend retreat is the perfect opportunity to catch up with old friends, make new ones, and deepen your understanding of beauty across various mediums.
We’ll start the weekend off right on Friday, June 2nd, with a warm and welcoming Hospitality and Fellowship evening from 4 PM to 8 PM. The next morning, we’ll embark on a journey of discovery that includes a guided tour of the National Gallery of Art with CSS artist-in-residence Michael Curtis, a poetry reading and discussion on the National Mall with CSS Executive Vice President David Talbot, and an optional Nationals baseball game at Nats Park in Navy Yard.
“A Weekend of Beauty with CSS” is an exclusive event, open only to CSS Members and Alumni of CSS Fellowships. While there is no cost to attend*, registration is required. Space is limited. To secure your spot, be sure to RSVP to Alex Pack at alex@commonsensesociety.org by May 15th.

If you are coming to town on the early side on Friday, you are more than welcome to sign up for our Members’ Art Practicum that afternoon.
