Shirlington Jazz Festival

For those of you who may live in the Washington, D.C. area or are simply visiting and looking for something to do, it's worth a stop by the Shirlington neighborhood for the annual Jazz festival.

Running every Thursday from July 12th through August 30th, you can sit at outside tables in the quaint Village at Shirlington, enjoying some great Jazz bands and sampling wines from the local wine and cheese shop, Cheesetique

For $5 you can sample four wines; two red and two white.  Proceeds go towards the Arlington Food Assistance Center.  When I went, I also received a 10% off coupon for Cheesetique and a Village at Shirlington wine glass (not sure if quantities were limited).  Come enjoy some music and some wine, all for a good cause!
