Duke Ellington Concert: April 29
The location is Duke Ellington Park in the West End, which is the small triangular park at the intersection of M Street, 21st Street, and New Hampshire Avenue. Duke Ellington was born nearby on April 29, 1899. Once again this year, the featured jazz band will be King James and the Serfs of Swing, from George Washington University. West End ANC Commissioner Rebecca Coder will emcee the event. Come and enjoy the music and meet your neighbors! See more information on Duke Ellington Park and its background on this website.
