Next Saturday, August 2, will be the third annual White Linen Night in the Heights. It's basically an outdoor art-and-music festival, spread over several areas in the Heights - you can read more about it here. The event is an import from New Orleans, and the name refers to the tradition of wearing white linen clothing as a way to beat the heat. We went to last year's and had a lot of fun, and we'll be going again this year. If you're looking to get involved, the Greater Heights Democratic Club needs a few volunteers during the event. Regardless, come out and meet some neighbors and enjoy a fun evening in the Heights.
