The D.C. area is one of the top regions in the country for culture. 

If you like museums, there are tons of great ones and some terrific current and upcoming exhibits.

If your taste in entertainment leans more towards live music concerts, all the great shows make a stop on the tour in the D.C. area.  Besides for New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and maybe Boston, Washington D.C. ranks as one of the top venues for live music.
