What to Expect Around Town This Weekend (June 4-5)
Well, that was fast. The weekend is here, again.
What’s on your to-do list? Whatever it is, the weather is iffy. The National Weather Service predicts a weekend mix of sun and storms.
Here’s what else you should expect this weekend:
- Kalorama Park will reopen on Saturday with live music, workout classes and crafts for kids.
- The “Mother of All Yard Sales” hits Adams Morgan Saturday.
- Performers will share their most awkward and imitate sex stories in front of a live audience at the Black Cat Saturday night.
- Caped crusaders, local artists, and a smattering of celebrities will converge on the Walter E. Washington convention center for Awesome Con.
- Metro will suck for a long time starting this weekend.
