2010 CIP Symposium: Location




Join us in Washington, DC, this June,
but begin planning your visit to the nation’s capital today!
Both the Convention Center and symposium hotels
are convenient to all that DC has to offer. 

Walter E. Washington Convention Center Website

The Convention Center is less than one mile from the National Mall, a mere one mile from the White House, and just one-and-a-half miles from the U.S. Capitol.

Directions & Parking


For your convenience, a Metro station is located at the Convention Center. Each of the symposium hotels are within three blocks of a Metro station and within walking distance of many of the city’s sites, as well as a wide range of dining, cultural, and entertainment offerings. 

Visitor Information

Between the U.S. Capitol and the Library of Congress on one end and the Lincoln Memorial at the other, stretches “America’s Front Yard”. Within that two-and-a-half mile span, you will find the halls of government, over a dozen monuments, memorials, and museums packed with arts, culture, history and war, the presidency and sites honoring other great leaders, as well as many beautiful gardens.  And if you wish to step outside the National Mall, within reach of a short walk, cab or subway ride, you will find dozens more places to visit scattered throughout DC’s many interesting and eclectic neighborhoods.  Regardless of your interests or how you travel, a host of opportunities (many free and low-cost) await you.  We look forward to seeing you!
