Washington DC Heritage Trail project In October 2013, Dana Ellyn began her newest big painting project. She is using the Cultural Tourism DC Neighborhood Heritage Trail guides to inspire a new series of paintings. She has started with the Downtown Heritage Trail, "Civil War to Civil Rights" which begins just steps from the front door of her studio.

	Downtown Heritage Trail .2 Ceremony at the Crossroads Pondering Temperance Inspired by Civil War photographer, Mathew Brady's, photograph of Miss Outwater. Brady opened his studio at 627 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC in 1849. The building still remains, only slightly altered. It was at this same time in history that the Temperance movement and Prohibition started to take hold. The "Temperance Fountain" stands around the corner from Brady's studio.
