OCTFME RECOGNIZES PAGE HOUSE AS THE JUNE 2026 LOCATION OF THE MONTH

Tuesday, June 23, 2026

(Washington, DC) - The award-winning District of Columbia Office of Cable Television, Film, Music, and Entertainment (OCTFME) has named Page House as its June 2026 Location of the Month. Nestled in Dupont Circle, one of the city’s most recognizable neighborhoods, Page House offers creators a rare blend of historic architecture, modern style, and production‑ready versatility. 

Page House occupies the second floor of a historic mansion on 16th Street and features a versatile suite of elegant, interconnected spaces. With six distinctive parlors, a refined ballroom, a private courtyard, and curated garden areas, the property provides multiple looks within a single location. For content creators, this means the ability to capture cinematic variety without the need to relocate across the city.

“Washington, DC continues to offer filmmakers an impressive range of unique and cinematic locations, and Page House stands out as a truly distinctive production destination,” said LaToya Foster, OCTFME Director and Film Commissioner. “Its blend of historic charm, contemporary design, indoor and outdoor spaces, and production‑friendly amenities allows creatives to tell compelling stories without ever leaving the property. Page House represents the type of location that helps make DC a premier destination for film and television production.”

Original architectural details and abundant natural light make Page House an ideal setting for scripted productions, documentary interviews, photography sessions, lifestyle content, brand activations, and special events. The venue’s seamless layout encourages movement and discovery, offering depth and visual variety rarely found in a single filming location.

A standout feature of the property is Black Ivy, a hidden “venue within a venue” accessible from inside Page House. Behind its discreet entrance lies a strikingly different environment—dramatic draping, ambient lighting, custom neon accents, and lounge‑inspired furnishings transform the space into an intimate setting reminiscent of a private club. Black Ivy offers producers and directors an entirely separate aesthetic without stepping outside the building.

The versatility of Page House extends to its practical advantages. The property offers multiple production‑friendly amenities including up to five dedicated parking spaces with rentals, courtyard space that can accommodate production vehicles or live feed operations (with appropriate permitting), and enough indoor and outdoor configurations to support a wide range of creative needs. Page House has already served as a location for multiple documentary shoots and continues to attract interest from filmmakers seeking refined, character-rich backdrops.

“What makes Page House so unique is the variety of environments available within a single location,” said Jenna Mack, Venue Manager at Page House. “You have elegant parlors, a ballroom, a courtyard, and gardens—each with its own character. Whether you’re producing content, capturing portraits, or hosting an event, the ability to move effortlessly between these spaces gives you unparalleled flexibility and creative potential.”
