DMV native and hip-hop artist Wale, alongside his administration firm EQT, has introduced Gifted Week, a collection of free group occasions operating from November 10-17, 2024, celebrating DMV tradition. The week-long initiative wraps up Wale’s 32-city Each Blue Moon Tour and leads into his sold-out present at MGM in Maryland on November 15. Gifted Week aligns with “Wale Day” in D.C., a proclamation by Mayor Muriel Bowser in the course of the tenth anniversary of his album The Gifted final yr.
Gifted Week highlights embody a Sneaker Design Workshop with Nike, a Youth Soccer Clinic with the Washington Commanders, an open mic poetry evening, and a music and sports activities panel. Coinciding with D.C.’s GoGo Appreciation Week, the occasion honors the area’s signature music style and is sponsored by main manufacturers like Nike, Monumental Sports activities, and extra.
All occasions are free; RSVP tickets can be found at gifted-dmv.com beginning November 1, 2024, at 10 a.m. PST.
