    The National Capital Radio and Television Museum (NCRTV) invites all to join us for our Annual Gala, on September 13, 2025, at the Bowie Comfort Inn. NCRTV will honor Diane Rehm, a leader in the local broadcasting community with the Ed Walker Lifetime Achievement Award in Broadcasting. Named for long-time local on-air personality and first NCRTV president Ed Walker, the Lifetime Achievement in Broadcasting award recognizes the impact that local radio and television communicators have had on the local citizens. Walker received the Lifetime Achievement Award in Broadcasting in 2015.

    Our Annual Gala is our largest fundraiser each year, and your support will help us continue to promote and preserve the rich history of electronic media, engage with our community, and further our educational outreach. There are many ways to support us, even if you can’t join us for the Gala. Sponsorships, or donations to our silent auction are a great way to show your support from afar.

    Discounted room rates are available at the Comfort Inn for those interested in staying over. Please contact the hotel directly at (301) 464-0089. The reserved room block is under NCRTV Museum.
