It’s 2nd Thursday. Happy Capitol Hill art walk day. Here’s the CHS On the List action for the Hill and beyond. You can let us know about your Capitol Hill event by adding a free listing on the CHS Calendar. Doing something cool elsewhere in the city? Let our pals at TheSunBreak know.

- Capitol Hill art walk: For anybody concerned about Capitol Hill becoming a monoculture of trendy food and drink business projects, the monthly art walk is your chance to encourage the best artists in the city to be part of the neighborhood and foster creative diversity. How do you do that? By showing up and looking at their work, for one. The full roster of participating venues can be found at http://www.blitzcapitolhill.com/ but we like the community-driven set of listings that flow through http://www.facebook.com/CapitolHillArtsWalk
