A LITTLE LATE, STILL GREAT
For the second F+F newsletter each month, I’ll share some either recently announced events or things I missed that didn’t make it to the calendar. Late but still great.
‘INHERITANCE’ BLACK ARTISTS EXHIBITION AT 11:ELEVEN GALLERY — STARTING JUNE 19
The newly reopened 11:Eleven Gallery (once a Bloomingdale neighbor, now cozied downtown) hosts a one-weekend-only exhibit by Nommo House. ‘Inheritance’ shows works from 25+ Black artists all examining the Black collective memory and heritage in America.
STATIC: A QUEER FASHION DISRUPTION AT TRANSMISSION — JUNE 27 STARTING AT 6PM
kinda obsessed with the concept of a fashion show for Pride, inherently disrupting the deluge of dance events happening at the venues in D.C. this month. Transmission hosts a show featuring works from 7+ brands by queer designers, plus a nightmarket from 6-10pm.
ORQUESTA MANPLESA’S 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY SHOW AT LAMONT PLAZA — JUNE 28 @ 4PM
Live outdoor salsa in Mount Pleasant …. turn me up. Local band Orquesta Manplesa has been tearing down all across D.C. for the last two years, and they come home to Mount Pleasant to celebrate with a free neighborhood show. (Details)
ANALOG MONDAYS
I just found this very new project I wish I had thought of first (but ultimately happy someone made it happen.)
Capital City Soundsystem produces indie shows with artists across a few venues in D.C., most notably The Fridge in SE. Later today (and every Monday) you can tune into FRIDGE.FM, 4+ hours of radio programming broadcasted here and hosted by local artists in the orbit.
If you tune in, just know I’m out there somewhere listening, too — the magic of radio <3
