Another Washington, DC achievement unlocked: I met the sculptor of the gargoyles and other decorations of the National Cathedral’s West Towers - including the Darth Vader grotesque!
.
Atlas Obscura hosted a local event with sculptor Jay Hall Carpenter at his home studio, with the creators of the book “No Access Washington DC.” Check out my story today to see his studio and work!
.
If you’d like to see Vader and more of Jay’s work in person, the cathedral offers specialty tours. Last summer I did the “Angels and Monsters” tour to see the gargoyles up close and go up in one of the towers. ⛪️ I’ve already booked the bell tower climb this June (because I will gladly climb a million stairs in the heat to get gorgeous views of the cathedral and DC )
.
Have you climbed to the top of any cathedral towers in your travels? Sometimes they have elevators - ours in DC does not!

One year older, one year bolder ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My birthday was actually 2 days ago but I’m really embracing that #latergram life I’m feeling very grateful to see another year around the sun. As always I’m thankful for my good health, my wonderful friends, a job that allows me to travel, and my community on here. 22 was a big year for me: I graduated from college and started a new job, so here’s hoping 23 treats me well. But apparently no one like you when you’re 23 so...
