The Party on the Potomac will be held at The Bullpen, a festival park across the street from the main entrance to the Washington Nationals Stadium. This years party will feature musical performances from Slim Pickins, Judo Chop, and Jimi Smooth & HitTime.

You must be 21 or older to attend due to the outrageous 7-hour long open bar. Tickets are a little pricey, but they include the seven hours of unlimited drinks at the open bar, entrance to the party, and the musical entertainment. Women’s tickets cost $75 and men’s cost $85, which is totally worth it if you consider what you would spend on drinks in a seven hour period in a ber or club.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Trey Lefler Memorial Scholarship Fund. Trey was a board member of the Capital Club of Washington, a mentor in the “Everybody Wins” reading program, a founding member of the Capitol Entertainment Group, and as a utility player for the Chiefs Softball Team. He passed away in November 2007 at the age of 25 after a tragic car accident.

10 percent of all patio sales will be donated to the charity, which is an all-volunteer, non-profit animal rescue organization dedicated to saving the lives of homeless animals. Your pups won’t be left out, though, water and free treats will be served to them all day as well.

Danny Harris is a DC-based photographer, writer, and performer who will be exhibiting his series “At Home on the Playa” throughout the month of April. “Art Crimes” will only be on display to celebrate opening night this Wednesday.

The exhibit is curated by The Dunes who will be donating 33% of their profits from art sales at “Art Crimes” to Japan earthquake relief.

Danny Harris considers Burning Man to be like another home for him, after attending two years in a row. “[His] hope is that these images encourage you to think about the different places that you call home and to reflect on your own intimate, solitary moments there.”

This makes Books for America unique among most non-profit organizations in the United States. Recipients include adult and youth literacy programs, youth centers, transitional homeless shelters, hospitals, inner-city and rural schools, military bases, assisted living communities for seniors, veterans hospitals, women’s shelters, hospices, and other such organizations.
