The Adams Morgan Partnership Business Improvement District (BID) is excited to announce the first-ever Spring PorchFest on Saturday, May 20 from 2-6 p.m.!
Over the last 10 years, the organization has received overwhelming community support during their October PorchFest and has decided to add a second PorchFest to the neighborhood events lineup. With over 70+ bands, this spring edition will showcase some of DC’s best local musical talent featuring nearly every musical genre, including classic rock, funk, go-go, rap, reggae, blue grass, classical, and pop.
Seventeen porches, patios, and stoops will become stages for the day, drawing music-lovers from around the region into the tree-lined streets and small businesses of Adams Morgan.
Event patrons can pick up a music map and wristband at the event headquarters located in the plaza at the corner of Columbia and Adams Mill Roads NW. Event wristbands are FREE and provide attendees with dozens of discounts at various Adams Morgan businesses.
After stopping by the event headquarters, guests can stroll through the neighborhood for nonstop musical performances from 2-6 p.m., enjoy lunch, dinner, or drinks at a neighborhood hangout, and shop for unique gifts at local boutiques.
Each PorchFest location will host up to four 45-minute sets, all of which are free and open for all to enjoy. The main stage will feature various headliners including: Gordon Sterling and The People, Fanfaire, Bryan Lee Music, and The Experience Band and Show. The full lineup of performers can be found at AdMoPorchFest.com.
Adams Morgan PorchFest is hosted by the Adams Morgan Partnership BID and sponsored by generous community partners including Gifted Curators, Lars Etzkorn Law PLLC, and The Agave Room. The Adams Morgan Partnership BID is currently recruiting volunteers to assist with staffing Spring PorchFest. Volunteers will receive a free t-shirt, Adams Morgan swag, and an invitation to a private event the day of PorchFest. Click here to sign up

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
