Capitol Hemp Opening Second Location in Chinatown

We took a look at the Adams Morgan location here. From a press release:

When Adam Eidinger and Alan Amsterdam opened Capitol Hemp Clothing and Accessories on April 20, 2008, they never imagined it would be less than two years before they would open a second store at 519 H Street, NW. Now the DC duo are pleased to announce they will host a major event at the Rock N Roll Hotel!! On the evening of Tuesday, April 20, 2010. The event is expect to demonstrate the strong support in the DC community for Capitol Hemp which regularly showcases undiscovered artists and designers, gallery openings and special events.

The Anniversary concert will demonstrate Capitol Hemp’s deep committed to Washington, DC’s musicians, artists and activists. “We’ve assembled an all star line-up of some of DC’s most exciting musical artists,” says Adam Eidinger. Doors open at 8pm, the show begins at 9pm and its an all ages event. Tickets are only $10
