New Shinola DC Flagship to Host Neighborhood Block Party This Saturday


From our friends at Shinola...

Shinola, known for its Detroit-built watches, bicycles, journals, pet accessories, small leather goods and leather care, will host a neighborhood block party on Saturday, October 3 from 2:00 to 7:00 PM. The brand has partnered with DC Central Kitchen for the day-long bash, featuring a variety of District favorites, including Compass Coffee and Jrink Juicery mobile vendors. In addition to in-store beer tastings, an on-site photo booth and lawn games, guests can expect live musical performances from the Howard Gospel Choir, a live DJ and a special, to-be-announced headliner.

Shinola opened their third nationwide flagship store to Washingtonians in mid September, marking the brand’s tenth brick-and-mortar location. The 5,000-square-foot corner building was originally home to the Studebaker showroom in the 1920s.
