Don't count Washington out when it comes to the nation's art centers.

Women Rule talks with two leading ladies of D.C.'s art scene: Melissa
Chiu, the director of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, and
Julie Kent, the artistic director for the Washington Ballet. Chiu
discusses the rise of museums in the age of social media, her curation
of Kusama's popular "Infinity Rooms" exhibit, and how she turned the
Hirshhorn into an Instagram sensation. Kent reflects on her transition
away from dancing and weighs what it means for women to lead in the art
world.
