Art of Expression WHCD Pre-Party!

Another great WHCD pre-party was at the National Mall Friday night by Google and The Atlantic.

A temporary tent was constructed beneath the glow of the Washington Monument, setting a true Washington ambiance in America’s front yard. We snapped Miss District of Columbia Teresa Davis and Miss DC USA Lizzy Olsen.

The party included various art installations to celebrate the diversity of creative outlets in technology and media, including culinary treats suspended from wires to be enjoyed. Here, The Atlantic editor-at-large Steven Clemons and Katie Couric.
