For the DC area you might want to check with Creative Dimension Group (based in Fredericksburg, VA). They specialize in custom millwork, architectural millwork, vitrines/display cases, exhibition design, etc. They have done work for the Smithsonian among other institutions in the DC area.
I know that their website is down until the end of the week but should be back up by Friday (www.creativedimensiongroup.com). Meanwhile you can email directly: Jack Johnson (principal) at [log in to unmask]
(Full disclaimer: the principal is my brother. While my organization has not used them [we're based in Ct.] I have seen their work and would commend it).
Good luck in your search,

Coupled with this question, I am looking for a place to purchase a sheet of
Plexiglas and Plexiglas vitrines in Washington, D.C. Any suggestions would
be very helpful. Thank you.

Dear Fellow Listers,
I am looking for any referrals for fabricators of wooden display pedestals
and plexiglass vitrine tops for the display of museum objects. Any
information would be much appreciated. Manufacturers in the New York
Metroplitan and Long Island areas are optimal. Thank you all in advance.
Cheers!
