The ever-popular Peeps will be honored on Peeps Day, Saturday, May 31, at Artomatic, the Washington, D.C. area’s homegrown art extravaganza hosted by the NoMa (North of Massachusetts Avenue) Business Improvement District (BID). Peeps Day, held in conjunction with the winners of The Washington Post’s Sunday Source Peeps Diorama Contest, will include a “meet the artists” Peeps Party from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., along with a children’s tour and workshop from noon to 2 p.m. Another highlight of Artomatic’s fourth weekend in NoMa is the first-ever Artomatic 500 on Sunday, June 1, during which Artomatic’s participating artists will run wearing homemade decorated cardboard “vehicles.” Winners will be selected based on “some combination of garishness and ingenuity yet to be determined,” said organizer Sal Ferro. Among the dozens of free live performances and activities to be held throughout the weekend is an appearance by the popular band Mambo Sauce at 10 p.m. on Saturday. The go-go band is well-known for its Billboard chart-topping song “Welcome to D.C.,” which has been used as the official introduction song for Washington Wizards home games. Artomatic’s displays by over 700 visual artists on 10 floors will continue as well
