“New LGBTQ+ Bar Opening in former Whitlow’s Space”


2014 9TH Street, NW previously home to Echo Park and Gaslight

From an email:

“The owners of the Dirty Goose have acquired the space at 2014 9th street, formerly Gaslight Tavern, Echo Park, and recently Whitlow’s. And will be opening a new/second LGBTQ+ bar called Shakers.

As that area of the U Street corridor is currently evolving, the opening of the new space will be providing the atmosphere of neighborhood bar/nightlife hotspot, while providing a wide array of events (and food from neighbor Whitlow’s). They’ll be opening in mid-July.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
