On April 5, 2011, Capitol Hill saw its first ever flash mob when "The Capital Hearings" led the crowd of politicians, arts advocates and celebrities in a rousing rendition of America the Beautiful! This is a mashup of footage from OvationTV as well as several crowdsourced cell phone videos. Special thanks to Americans for the Arts for organizing Arts Advocacy Day and Ovation for their generous support.
