This Spring marks the 21st Annual Georgetown French Market, a weekend where the streets of Georgetown transform into an open-air market with local shops tabling outside and offering discounts and amazing deals. The Market celebrates local small businesses, community organizations, and pays homage to the French way of life. The event is along Wisconsin Avenue NW between O St. and Reservoir Rd in Central Georgetown and runs from Friday and Saturday, 10 AM – 5 PM, to Sunday from 12 PM – 5PM. Over 40 local businesses and organizations will be participating! We invite you to come on down and enjoy the live entertainment, street performers, local shops, and to stop by our table to learn more about the work we do at National Whistleblower Center.
Attendees who donate at least $50 to NWC will receive a copy of Stephen Kohn’s book “Rules for Whistleblowers: A Handbook for Doing What’s Right,” and those who sign up for our mailing list will be entered into a raffle to win a free copy of the book. The event is completely free for attendees and is family friendly. Please stop by our table to meet NWC’s staff and learn more about how we advocate for whistleblowers right from our office in Washington, D.C. !
