Some Washington area journalists such as PBS’s Gwen Ifill and “Washington Watch” Host Roland Martin are about to find out this week during the Congressional Black Caucus’ Annual Legislative Conference. The WaPo-owned The Root will host an exclusive, private, invite-only reception at The Corcoran Gallery of Art. They expect a large turnout.

Invited guests include “politicians, elected officials, key political influencers and celebrities.”  The purpose of the event is “to provide a sophisticated end to our guests’ evening of dinners and receptions,” and introduce them to the Corcoran’s latest exhibit ’30 Americans’ which will launch October 1st.
