H Street Festival



On September 21, 2019, I created the below flyer for the Malcolm X Drummers and Dancers who appeared at the H Street Festival in 2019.








"The H Street Festival in Washington, DC began in 1985 as a small, unofficial block party that was originally planned by the Community-Business Action Coalition (COMBAC) to help revitalize the neighborhood after the 1968 riots. The festival has since grown into one of the city's largest annual events, with over 150,000 participants. The festival highlights the city's arts and humanities, and allows residents and visitors to explore the neighborhood's diverse food and cultural offerings."


I have not provided services for the Malcolm X Drummers and Dancers since the pandemic began in 2020.


The H Street Festival made its debut in 1985 in my hometown of Washington, D.C., a time when I was just nine years old and attending NationHouse as a student.
