“Explore today’s immigrant experience through the stories of 10 local makers at the historic home of German immigrant, brewmaster, and business owner Christian Heurich for an “Immigrant-Owned Mini Markt.”

1307 New Hampshire Avenue, NW

From a press release:

“KAMA and the Heurich House Museum present an “Immigrant-Owned Mini Markt” on Saturday, August 6, 2022 from 3-8 pm in the Museum’s biergarten, 1921.

Shop from 10 immigrant-owned small local businesses at a special Mini Markt curated by KAMA DC, a volunteer-led organization working to provide a platform for immigrants to share their skills and stories.

Vendors will be announced this week on social media.

The museum was once the home of brewmaster Christian Heurich, who immigrated to the U.S. in 1866 from Germany. Today, the museum explores the American Dream through the legacy of historic Heurich household staff, brewery workers, and the craftspeople who built the home — many of whom were immigrants — while also supporting DC’s modern workers through our Small Business Development program, creating a more equitable path to success for small-scale manufacturers.

This event is free to attend. Registration is recommended, but not required. Donations may be made to KAMA DC during online registration or at the Markt.

The biergarten features fresh local craft beer from DC breweries and an opportunity to explore HOME/BREWED, an exhibit featuring 1,000 objects from the historic Heurich brewery. Masks are recommended in indoor spaces. 1921, a Biergarten supports the museum’s Small Business Development programs.
