Update:

“Today, the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority (DC Water) will collect water samples from four to five locations in the area of Northeast D.C. currently under a boil water advisory. These samples will be analyzed at DC Water’s laboratory. Test results should be available Tuesday afternoon. A second round of sampling will also take place tomorrow. Following two consecutive days of clear samples, DC Water will lift the current boil water advisory, which we expect will be on Wednesday.

“Dear PoPville,

The new store is called Made With Love. It’s designed to be a neighborhood space for wellness and art. From the physical space itself (which I personally renovated), to the products sold here, to the art people can make here, everything in the space is made with love. We honor that we are all unique individuals made with love, made of love, made for love.

Here, we sell handmade wellness-related goods made by local businesses and artists (candles, body and hair products, wellness journals, art kits, essential oils, and more), featuring makers of color. We will also hold family friendly art and wellness classes, such as expressive painting, therapeutic journaling, meditative coloring, tea mixing, and more. This is a space to unplug, slow down, and enjoy!

We’re preparing for a soft opening this Friday and weekend.”
