Down in the Reeds T-shirts and Festival Donation Link

WASHINGTON (August 17) The 3rd Annual Down in the Reeds Festival is taking place on Saturday October 8th 2022 at The Parks at Walter Reed from 11:00am to 7:00pm.  This free festival will feature two stages of live performances and workshops, art activations and games for all ages, and an incredible array of local art vendors, makers, food and drink.

Today the festival is kicking off a countdown to October 8th with a Free RSVP link that allows the public to pre order T-shirts or make a donation to the festival. We need to raise an additional $5000.00 from public contributions and t-shirt sales over the next couple of weeks.  This marks the first time the festival will be selling merchandise, and the T-shirts will feature this year’s festival design created by Evidence of Yesterday. 

T-Shirts can be pre ordered online for $25 ($5 less than the sale price the day of the festival) and picked up the day of the event.  Supporters could also make a $10 donation to help fund this year’s festival (and get a free sticker). The process is easy, click on the RSVP link, fill out the RSVP info, click submit and then on the next page there is an option to purchase a T-shirt (Make sure you choose the right size) or make a donation..

 The more people from the community that we can engage and get excited about the festival the better the event will be for all.  Please click on the link below to RSVP and show us your support.
