Last night Gloria writes us with the google notice below: “please confirm because I am devastated”
Now we’ve seen some google notices of permanent closures that haven’t been accurate so I wasn’t too worried straight away. Then I went to their website:

Then I called their phone number (202) 265-2828 and it says: “you have reached a number that is not currently set up, please try again later.”
Their social media feeds haven’t been updated since October/November.
So yes, now I’m definitely concerned.
“Local 16 is an American Restaurant located in Washington, DC. Local 16 was first known for its expansive roof deck which was unrivaled for many years. After 14 years, Local 16 maintains its reign in the local restaurant and bar scene as a neighborhood place that offers a fantastic happy hour & Live Music. Our menu now features some of Afghanistan’s most popular dishes inspired by Aman’s mother Benazhir and cooked by Aman himself. We specialize in Cocktails, Brunch, Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Nightlife & more. We are the perfect spot for almost any occasion: a Family Restaurant, a Brunch Restaurant, a Breakfast Restaurant, a Nightclub…Local 16 is all these things.”
I’ve emailed the owner for comment and will/update post if/when I hear back.
STAY TUNED and keep your fingers crossed for good news.

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!
