2023 Stewardship update photography

The National Mall is filled with symbolism, beauty, and meaning, so the Trust for the National Mall is grateful to all of our photography partners who help us tell the story of this iconic space.

The 2023 Stewardship Update includes many works contributed by volunteer photographers who contribute their works to the Trust for projects including our Annual Wall Calendar, as well as partner and staff photographers who help capture our events.
