FotoWeek DC (Nov. 15-22), a weeklong celebration of photography, is this week and centered around Georgetown. Galleries, embassies and museums are hosting events all over the city, but the headquarters (or “FotoWeek Central”) are at 3333 M Street.

Right next to Sweetgreen, in what used to be a ridiculous furniture store, a spacious, two-level white-walled storefront now houses a barrage of photography exhibits: giant contact sheet prints showing the process of photojournalism, Hurricane Katrina photos, hundreds of photography books meant for perusing, and more.

Across the street, another storefront houses even more exhibits. The best part is that it’s all free, as long as you wear the bright red button they give you when at the entrance.
