Artomatic is a month-long art festival in DC celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.

Monument Realty and Capitol Riverfront have provided a brand-new 275,000 square foot building to host Artomatic, right next to the Nationals Stadium. The event features nine floors of visual and installation art, two theater, dance or comedy stages, a music stage, street performances such as fire dancing, and a film screening theater.

Events are held all month such as a Peeps sculpture contest, the Zombie Prom, Box Racing, body paint shows, and a no-holds-barred Art in Fashion show.

Each floor also has a bar and a seating lounge. 52,000 people attended Artomatic last year, and 70,000 are expected this year for the 10th Anniversary Artomatic. 1,000 visual artists and over 600 performing artists are exhibiting this year.

Artomatic is free to the general public!
