The 25 best things to do in D.C. this weekend and next week

The National Cherry Blossom Festival gets underway this weekend with a trio of family-friendly festivals at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Library of Congress and the Textile Museum, and a day of flying kites at Oxon Run Park. (Word of warning: The Bloomaroo festival at the Wharf has already been postponed due to the weather forecast.) The return of March Madness will have basketball fans filing into sports bars before noon Thursday and Friday, dreaming of upsets and drink specials. This weekend also includes the kickoff of the D.C. Environmental Film Festival, celebrations of Holi, a live podcast recording with José Andrés, free concerts with the National Symphony Orchestra at venues around the Wharf and Navy Yard, and a viewing party with bingo and trivia for the final episode of “The Bachelor.”

Thursday, March 21

March Madness

March Madness gets underway at 12:15 p.m., and once your bracket’s finished, it’s time to start planning where you’re “working from home” while following your picks. Here are some ideas for where to watch:

Bluejacket has only four TVs behind the bar, but the Navy Yard brewery is offering the most unusual special we’ve seen : Every time a lower seed beats a higher seed, everyone seated in the bar area receives a free half pint of beer. Doesn’t matter if it’s the first round or the final. Deals, including $15 combos with a beer and burger or fried chicken sandwich, are also available. Highline RXR in Crystal City is running its own Elite 8 Beer Bracket with beers from eight regional breweries, including DC Brau, Bear Chase and Dogfish Head. Beers are priced at $6.50, and each order counts as a “point,” so overall sales will determine the winner of each “round.” Feel like you know whether folks will prefer Brau’s Joint Resolution over Solace’s Suns Out, Hops Out? Make your own bracket picks to win a $200 gift card and other prizes.

Walters has been a fixture across from Nationals Park for years, and it has all the screens you need for the first weekend, including a video wall. Both buckets of beers and buckets of wings are $25 during games. As an added bonus, you can make table reservations , beginning at 11 a.m. Sports & Social on U Street touts its 25-foot “media wall” that’s capable of showing multiple games, and the curved booths in front of it are great for groups. It also has TVs behind the bar and spread around the room. Doors open at 11:30 a.m. the first two days of the tournament, with $3 domestic beer bottles until 7 p.m., and $20 buckets of five beers during games.

Mission’s Navy Yard location opens at 11:30 a.m. with specials including $5.50 Bud Light pints, $9 orange crushes, themed shot deals and $10 select food items at its four bars. Franklin Hall opens half an hour before the first games, with specials including $4 pints and $14 pitchers of Miller Lite and $30 buckets of cans from Kona, Topo Chico and Golden Road. Whitlow’s opens at noon Thursday and Friday, with $25 buckets of Coors Light, Miller Lite and Nutrl seltzer until 10 p.m.

In case you’re wondering where the top seeds are gathering: U-Conn alumni gather at Colony Grill in Arlington, Mission Dupont is a Houston bar, the Bottom Line is the destination for Purdue alumni, and North Carolina fans head to Exiles and Tom’s Watch Bar .

Environmental Film Festival

More than 60 films will be on view in locations all over the city during this year’s Environmental Film Festival, where you can learn about everything from fungi to the wilds of Mongolia. Smithsonian museums, embassies, universities, libraries, AFI Silver Theatre, the Naval Heritage Center, the National Academy of Sciences and the National Museum of Women in the Arts will all host screenings, many of which are free. The films are devoted to topics like conservation, climate change and environmental justice. This year’s award winners include an exploration about the world of moths called “The Night Visitors” and “We Are Guardians,” a documentary about Indigenous people who risk their lives to protect the Brazilian Amazon from deforestation. Through March 30. Various times and locations. Free to $25 .

José Andrés and Friends at Lincoln Theatre

Celebrity chef José Andrés is celebrating the launch of his new cookbook, “Zaytinya: Delicious Mediterranean Dishes From Greece, Turkey and Lebanon,” with a hodgepodge performance that includes interviews, cooking and live music. He’s joined by “The View” co-host Ana Navarro and Greek food writer Aglaia Kremezi for a live recording of his podcast, where he’ll discuss food stories and Mediterranean favorites. Copies of the book will be available for purchase but not included in the ticket price. 8 p.m. $45.

‘Women in Craft Beverage’ panel at Other Half Brewing

Nine women who work in the craft beer and spirits industry — as founders of breweries and distilleries, owners of bottle shops, bartenders and brewery quality directors, and consultants and historians — team up for a panel discussion at Other Half Brewing in Ivy City. If you’re curious about working in the field, or just want to know more about what’s in your glass at a favorite bar, this should be an interesting look at life behind the scenes. Tickets include two slices of Andy’s Pizza, two draft beers from Other Half and a cocktail made with Lyon Rum from St. Michaels. (Lyon president and founder Jaime Windon is one of the panelists.) 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. $38 .

Silver Branch Fifth Anniversary Party

The oldest brewery in Silver Spring marks five years in business with three days of specials. Celebrations kick off Thursday with Tap Talk , featuring co-founder Christian Layke and label artist Chris Bonnell sharing stories about Silver Branch’s evolution and beers. The $50 tickets include a pour of the new barrel-aged Belgian Single Ale, a flight of Belgian beers and a taco bar. On Friday and Saturday, there are all-day food and drink specials, including Belgian flights. Through Saturday. No cover charge on Friday and Saturday.

‘A2B: Slum Village’ at the Eaton

Slum Village’s 2000 album “Fantastic, Vol. 2” made waves in the underground hip-hop world, even though bootlegs with early versions of the tracks had been floating around for years. J Dilla’s production, previous showcased on songs for Common and Q-Tip, grabbed attention far outside the trio’s Detroit home; a Post review at the time praised his “unique brand of funk lite: airy chords, bubbly bass lines and muddy kicks defined mostly by a vague thumplike feeling in your stomach.” Detroit native and journalist Kaya Freeman and Matt Talley of Cool Kids Vinyl play favorite cuts and discuss “Fantastic, Vol. 2” and the group’s impact during an evening talk at the Eaton hotel as part of its A2B listening party series. 8 p.m. Free .

NSO in Your Neighborhood: ‘Riverfront’

The National Symphony Orchestra’s annual community outreach is focused on the banks of the Anacostia River and Washington Channel, with free concerts and events around Navy Yard, the Wharf and Southwest Washington over the next few days.

Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. $10; free for children 12 and under.

Hot Chip at 9:30 Club

Music fans of a certain age have looked on with wry smiles as Gen Z and millennials have rediscovered emo, mallcore and nu-metal. But are they ready for a revival of the early 2000s electro/“indie dance” sound? Justice, whose remix of “We Are Your Friends” was an inescapable dance floor filler, has a new album coming out in April and a July show at the Anthem. LCD Soundsystem is playing festivals on both sides of the Atlantic this summer. And this Friday, 9:30 Club’s late show is a DJ set by Hot Chip, the British outfit whose bubbling bass, pulsing electronic drums and choppy, snaking synths made singles like “Ready for the Floor,” “Boy From School” and “Over and Over” a go-to party soundtrack in the mid-aughts. But unlike many of its contemporaries, Hot Chip is still going, releasing “Freakout/Release,” a collection of funky, house-infused synth-pop tunes with giant singalong hooks, less than two years ago. They’re still just as much fun. 10 p.m. $30 .

Japanese Culture Day at the Library of Congress

The Library of Congress’s Japanese Culture Day is a hands-on experience, letting young visitors try origami, coloring woodblock prints and making a tiara with the Cherry Blossom Princesses, as well as watching Japanese dance and drumming performances or settling in for storytelling.

Family Day: Japanese Fashion at the Textile Museum

The Textile Museum’s Family Day is focused on Japanese fashion, so visitors can try on a happi coat or yukata before touring the galleries, watching dance or music performances, or making cherry blossom pendants. 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Free .

New this year, the Art of Pink at National Landing’s Metropolitan Park features a pop-up market with more than two dozen vendors, curated by AAPI art and culture organization Samasama.

‘A Bold and Beautiful Vision’ opening weekend at the Anacostia Community Museum

The newest exhibit at the Smithsonian’s Anacostia Community Museum is devoted to the gifted Black artists who taught in D.C. classrooms throughout the 20th century, and naturally, the opening weekend will be a learning experience. To kick off the year-long run of “A Bold and Beautiful Vision: A Century of Black Arts Education in Washington, D.C., 1900-2000,” the museum’s family-friendly activities include interactive projects and talks. On Saturday, listen to a panel discussion on Howard University’s history and legacy in the arts, running from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., featuring experts like filmmaker Topper Carew, who co-created the TV show “Martin,” and Kinshasha Holman Conwill, the founding deputy director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture. On Sunday, the artist Lex Marie leads a guided art experience. Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Free; advance registration encouraged.

Lahr Native Plant Symposium and Native Plant Sale at the U.S. National Arboretum

Need a break from flowering Japanese trees this weekend? Native plants take center stage at a pair of events at the U.S. National Arboretum. The annual Lahr Native Plant Symposium is a surefire sign of spring, featuring an entire morning and afternoon full of gardening wisdom from local experts employed by the Department of Agriculture, Smithsonian, National Arboretum, Meadowlark Botanical Gardens and other institutions. You’ll learn about topics from soil health to the best native trees to plant in your yard, and there will be question-and-answer opportunities. The symposium runs concurrently to Friends of the National Arboretum’s Native Plant Sale, billed as “one of the earliest plant sales in the area,” with vendors selling perennials and woody plants, so naturally, a shopping break is built into the symposium’s lunch. Sale: 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Free . Symposium: 9 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. $95 .

Lætitia Sadier at Songbyrd

For nearly two decades, French singer Lætitia Sadier was Nico for Gen X as the singer of eclectic avant-pop act Stereolab, a band whose spacey-dreamy tunes inspired, either directly or not, a generation of indie artists and the chilled waves of loungy electronic pop. As a solo artist, Sadier has continued such dreamweaving, skipping across decades and continents for influences that make albums like this year’s “Rooting for Love” familiar to Stereolab fans. 8 p.m. $17-$20 .

Women Behind the Mic: A Celebration of Hip-Hop at Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library

D.C. Public Library continues its celebration of Women’s History Month with a panel discussion that honors the hip-hop executives and veterans whose voices were excluded during the genre’s 50th anniversary moment.

Saturday Night Believer: A Purim Disco at Sixth and I

Sunday, March 24

Oxon Run Pinknic & Kite Fly at Oxon Run Park

Cherry Blossom Festival activities continue on Sunday with this popular-kite focused event in Southeast Washington.

Tuesday, March 26

Trivia Night: Women’s History Month at the National Portrait Gallery

Amaarae at Fillmore Silver Spring

The first time Amaarae picked up the microphone, she was trying to be a rapper, not a singer. She pursued that calling for a few years, collaborating with a producer cousin who eventually had to deliver a hard truth: While the Ghanaian American musician wasn’t that good as a rapper, her lilting voice — and its Auto-Tune-like birdsong — could probably make her lyrics shine as songs. Amaarae’s soprano pitter-patters across her sophomore album, finding pockets of air over percolating productions that draw on diasporic grooves, scintillating synthesizers and bubbling bass lines. Like many artists her age, the 29-year-old cannot be pigeonholed by genre, like when gentle guitar ballad “Sex, Violence, Suicide” erupts into a punk kiss-off reminiscent of the early-aughts New York scene. 8 p.m. $40 .

Interview: Amaarae found her voice — and the passion to use it
