From the events calendar:
After more than 10 years serving Columbia Heights and the residents of the Woodner Apartments, Sangria Cafe is closing its doors for good. If you’ve been before, you know the Sangria Cafe as one of the city’s most unique dive bars. If you’ve never had the pleasure, now’s your last chance!
The bar’s owners, Victor and Elizabeth, have created a welcoming and friendly atmosphere – and in one last gesture of community pride have offered to use one of their last nights in business to benefit Ayuda by donating 10% of ALL sales ALL night long. Ayuda has been helping the immigrant community in DC thrive for nearly 40 years so come out and show your support for drinking and non-profit organizations.
Help us send Sangria Cafe off right while also raising money for a great cause!
We judged the Sangria Cafe back in July 2009. Tony gave us a tour (lots of photos of the interior here) back in May 2010. We recently discussed our favorite no frills bars here. No word yet on who will be taking over the space, updates as more info becomes available.

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!
