From a press release:

“On November 23,2019, Creative Grounds DC, a unique art space and coffee bar will finally open its doors to the public. The two-storey, approximately 2,000 square-foot space located in the Bloomingdale neighborhood of Washington, D.C. is a community space for teaching and showcasing art while serving ethically sourced coffee and food goods from local vendors.

Husband and wife duo, Kenn Blagburn and Asmara Sium originally conceived this project in 2017, in response to the need for more enriching organized activities for Bloomingdale’s increasing family and child population, and as a permanent space for galvanizing and promoting D.C.’s unique arts and cultural communities.

Creative Grounds DC goes beyond the traditional coffee bar model to include a fulfilling arts education program for kids and adults. It will also serve to highlight and celebrate D.C.’s rich art community through exhibitions and artists talks.

It’s a place where art lovers, creatives and coffee enthusiasts from all backgrounds and ages can connect, create and learn. And, for those interested in rental space, Creative Grounds DC has you covered. The vision of Creative Grounds DC is to become the go-to destination for art-related events and exhibition space in the nation’s capital.

The grand opening will be held on November 23 2019, and will feature a wide variety of activities, including a kids corner, a featured artist, performances and great coffee.
