CITYCENTERDC WELCOMES THE FALL SEASON WITH THE DEBUT OF THE
“FIND YOUR JOY” CAMPAIGN AND AUTUMN FOREST INSTALLATION

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. (September 16, 2019) – CityCenterDC is welcoming the fall season with exciting offerings for the city. In celebration of the vibrant harvest season, the beloved Autumn Forest will return to Palmer Alley on September 16 through November 8, 2019, offering visitors a chance to stroll beneath a beautiful canopy of roughly 6,000 branches and about 269,000 fall leaves suspended overhead.

 

This fall will also see the debut of the “Find Your Joy” campaign, an optimistic new campaign developed by award-winning creative agency, Design Army, that celebrates Washington’s colorful and happy side.

 

“We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Find Your Joy. Since coming online in 2013 CityCenterDC has always strived to create unique and memorable moments for members of the community to enjoy and share with others. Those special moments, whether big or small, are what we wanted to emphasize in our new campaign.,” stated Timothy R. Lowery, general manager of CityCenterDC.

 

The campaign will appear in print, online, outdoor, and mobile channels across the East Coast. To mark the launch, CityCenterDC is inviting visitors to share destination photos using the hashtag #FindYourJoyDC on Instagram, for the chance to win a $500 prize.

 

Visitors can participate in the “Find Your Joy” giveaway contest from Sept. 16 through Nov. 4, 2019. The winner will be announced on or around Nov. 8, 2019, via the CityCenterDC Instagram account.

 

Palmer Alley isn’t the only place to find artistic flair at CityCenterDC this season: The Washington Ballet will spread joy to the District with live performances on The Plaza at CityCenter. Fall 2019 performances will be held September 25 and October 2 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., weather permitting.

 

The Farmers Market will continue to offer patrons the opportunity to purchase harvest fruits and vegetables, breads and baked goods, cut flowers, and plants—and to indulge in delicious prepared dishes from local purveyors—each Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in The Park at CityCenter through October 29, 2019.
