Thanks to the help of DC Public Library, Human-I-T, and Mayor’s Office on Returning Citizen Affairs, Mayor Muriel Bowser and DSLBD were able to close the digital gap for over 100 small businesses and empower a community of entrepreneurs to thrive in a digital world.

Thank you, National Cannabis Festival, for inviting #DSLBD to be a judge at their annual small business pitch competition!

Every small business deserves a chance to thrive and succeed. We proudly support and uplift these entrepreneurs on their journey to success. #supportsmallbusiness

Such a pleasure to join my colleagues from DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities for DC Art All Night at Canal Park this past weekend! Glad to see so many members of the public pay a visit at our gallery as well as enjoy the outside activities! Thx again Capitol Riverfront & DSLBD #TheDCArts #DCisOpen
