SUMMARY:Field Trip:  Smithsonian Air and Space Museum - Udvar-Hazy Center
DESCRIPTION:Photo taken by Seton Droppers\n\n\n\nJoin us for an exciting summer indoor field trip to the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center\, home to one of the most impressive aviation and space artifacts collections in the world. From the awe-inspiring Space Shuttle Discovery to the sleek SR-71 Blackbird\, there are endless photographic opportunities featuring historic aircraft\, spacecraft\, and stunning architecture. \n\n\n\nBest of all—no need to worry about the heat or rain since this is an indoor facility with ample lighting and plenty of visual inspiration. It’s a great chance to experiment with composition\, reflections\, and wide-angle storytelling. \n\n\n\nMore information about the museum can be found here:https://airandspace.si.edu/visit/udvar-hazy-center \n\n\n\nWhen:Saturday\, July 19\, 2025\, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.(Rain or shine—this one’s indoors!) \n\n\n\nWe’ll meet just inside the front entrance\, past security\, near the John L. Plueger Family Welcome Center (the information desk) at 10:00 a.m. \n\n\n\nWhere:Steven F.
