DC:Through The Lens - Cherry Blast

On Friday night, boat loads, or rather yellow school bus loads of "peeps" turned out at a warehouse across the river to celebrate their love for arts and cherry blossoms at the Pink Line Project's latest rager, Cherry Blast. To those who have attended previous Pink Line Project parties, Philippa Hughes did not disappoint, as she could have possibly topped them all with her location selection in Anacostia at 2020 Shannon Place SE (the future home of JazzNSoul Cafe), and super-convenient yellow school bus shuttle transportation from Dupont Circle. Quite possibly the most unusual, thus, most fun official Cherry Blossom event, Cherry Blast revolved around a Japanese theme while spotlighting local artists and businesses.

Some of the highlights of the evening...er...late night into morning...included the Pink Line signature graffiti decor, swag that included yummy peeps, painted models and a caged go-go dancer provided by Moojoo Ken, On the Fly eats parked in roach coach style outside the building, and--if fantastic music and DJ beats weren't enough--there were plenty of hula-hoops for all hips on the floor.
