AdMo Vibe is the ultimate setting for a family night out, date night, relaxing evening in the park, or solo adventure. The bands will be playing various genres of music including folk, pop, classical, rock, jazz, and more. Participants can picnic with takeout from a local restaurant, enjoy good vibes with neighbors and friends, and visit an array of shops and boutiques just steps away before or after the performances.
The series kicks off on Wednesday, August 3 with the Saints Band, a band comprised of several talented students from Adams Morgan’s very own Sitar Arts Center. The students have performed at many DC events (including Adams Morgan PorchFest) and enjoy engaging with the community.
