“Not sure if you can help but my daughter drove her/our car down to DC 3/8 for the Awesomecon. She came earlier in the day and parked in a garage around 330pm. She parked on floor B4, gave the attendent 20 dollars because even though it was $19 they didn’t have change. They told her remember B4 and that they closed at 7. They gave her directions and never gave her a slip with the garage on it. (more…)

From AlertDC:
“Please be aware a fireworks display will take place tonight, April 6, at 8:30pm in the Washington Channel around Yards Park. DC Fire and EMS has licensed this pyrotechnic display and fire inspectors will be on the scene. There is no cause for alarm.”
DC Legendary Musicians, Inc. celebrates its 20th Anniversary with Spirit, Sanctuary, Silence & Sound, an evening honoring Washington, DC’s musical legacy, cultural memory, and community service. Founded in 2006 by Rev. Dr. Sandra Butler-Truesdale, DCLM has spent two decades recognizing the musicians, elders, artists, and cultural workers who helped shape DC’s sound.
The celebration will include music, recognition, community gathering, and a special tribute to the symbolic legacy of Ron McNair — astronaut, physicist, and saxophonist. The evening also marks the launch of renewed DCLM programming, including Second Sunday Sound, Silence & Sanctuary, the Annual Thanksgiving Drive, and the renewal of an Annual Health Fair connected to DC Legendary Musicians Way near 6th and T Street NW.
