From a media advisory:
“WHAT: The Hirshhorn Museum celebrates a milestone in October 2024: its 50th birthday. Fifty is too big a birthday for one day, or just one cake, so the Museum is partnering with four fine bakeries: Rose Avenue Bakery; Founding Farmers, Fishers, Bakers; Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken and Just Fine Donuts to celebrate the “concrete doughnut” on the National Mall. Between Thursday Oct. 3 and Sunday, Oct. 6, one fine bakery will provide 50 free donuts to be distributed at 10 am in our lobby, one per person, until all have been shared.

From our good, old, friends from Ivy and Coney (1537 7th Street, NW):
“Hey there sports fans! Ivy and Coney is turning 10, and to celebrate a decade of debauchery we are serving up the unique combination of enthusiasm and regret that has made us who we are for the past decade. We couldn’t be more grateful to have made it this far, and we wouldn’t be here without everyone who has supported us over the years. Hope to see you at the bar this Sunday and for years to come! Because blood is thicker than water, but nothing is thicker than thick malort.
