Have a free drink with Liz Taylor tonight at Dacha
We're still busily updating our list of shutdown happy hours, but we wanted to alert you of a new one in particular: Dacha Beer Garden will offer one glass of Fruh kolsch to anyone with a government ID tonight between 4 and 7 p.m. The forecast looks perfect for drinking outside and it's a chance to check out the new 50-foot mural of Elizabeth Taylor, whose violet eyes gaze down at folks drinking German beer from glass boots.
Created by muralist Byron Peck, the artist known for U Street's Duke Ellington mural, the image of Taylor is created in memory of the support her foundation provided to Shaw's Whitman-Walker Clinic. The mural will officially be dedicated at 6 p.m. Thursday, when Peck will sign the mural and, a press release says, "Councilmember Jim Graham, who knew Taylor when he was executive director of the Whitman-Walker Clinic, will offer recollections of the legendary actress."
