Letter from the Mayor

Dear Washingtonians,   

September in the District is in full swing: Students are back in school — and don't forget the DCPS Back to School Block Party [ [link removed] ] tomorrow. 202Creates is underway, and Theatre Week [ [link removed] ] and Dine All Night [ [link removed] ] are just around the corner, as is H Street Festival [ [link removed] ].

This week, we welcomed leaders, advocates, and activists from across the country to strategize, connect, and amplify Black voices at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s Annual Legislative Conference. I say frequently that people come to DC to change the world, and each year, CBC Week is a reminder of just how true that is. 

On Sunday, we will kick off Hispanic Heritage Month with the 4th Annual Mi Pequeño El Salvador Festival [ [link removed] ], a celebration of culture, food, and community. Later in the month, join us for Fiesta DC [ [link removed] ], the nation’s largest Latino Festival. These events — and many more [ [link removed] ] — will honor the rich traditions, achievements, and lasting impact of Latino communities in DC.

"This week, we celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with members of my Administration — Somos Washington, DC!"

All of these events are celebrations of our DC values — the people, neighborhoods, and ideas that keep DC the most important city in the world — and I'm grateful for all the people working together to highlight the best of DC. 

See you around the city this month!

Sincerely,

Muriel Bowser911
