Don’t miss our birthday bash next week!
The first ever Greater Greater Washington post went up in 2008. On Wednesday, March 29 from 6:30 to 9 pm, let's celebrate nine awesome years and wrap up our reader drive at Sudhouse, located at 1340 U Street NW.
Greater Greater Washington staff, contributors, readers, and supporters will be there for an evening of drinks, snacks, and conversation. Sudhouse has limited space, so please let us know if you’re coming!
The party is free (Sudhouse has put together a great happy hour menu that will be available through a cash bar), but it’s also the end of our reader drive. Please help us hit our goal of $30,000 by making a monthly or one-time contribution now!
Can't make it to our party? Check out one of these other great events coming up:
Monday, March 20: Test your local DC knowledge at DC Preservation Trivia Night. You can gather a team together beforehand or show up and play solo. Either way, it will be a great time, and there will be prizes. Trivia starts at 7 pm at Sauf Haus Bier Hall & Garden (1216 18th Street NW).
