We're back from our vacation, and are a little bit bummed that we don't have our regular staple of weekend Market food to help us out for our meals this week! We can't wait until the East Hall is up and running.
DC Foodies, the weblog covering all things food-related in the DC area, announced last week that they'll be donating their June ad sales to the CHCF Eastern Market relief fund. That's awesome, a great gesture from a group of food lovers to the people who've worked hard to provide fresh food staples to the Hill for decades!
The American Legion Post Number 8 (at 3rd and D Streets SE) will be hosting an Eastern Market fundraiser next Wednesday, June 27th, from 5 PM to 8 PM. Music will be provided by Charles Wellborn, complementary food will be provided, and there will be a cash bar; they're suggesting a donation of $50 or more to attend, and money raised will go to the CHCF relief fund. It's on the calendar!
Judy Jashinski, a Capitol Hill resident and artist with works in, among other places, DC's own National Gallery of Art and National Museum of Women in the Arts, is having an art sale, with 50% of all proceeds benefitting the CHCF fund. For more info on Jashinski, visit her home page, and give thought towards decorating your home or office while also supporting the Market.
