All are invited to the 2nd Anacostia Waterfront Information Fair!

- Saturday, November 15th, 1:00 - 5:00 p.m.
- Indoors at Nationals Park - 1500 South Capitol Street, SE (enter at Centerfield Gate - Half St & N St SE)
- Take Metro to Navy Yard on the Green Line
- Complimentary refreshments will be provided
 
This is a family event, both fun and informative. District residents, small business owners, and civic organizations will have an opportunity to learn more about the changing landscape along the seven-mile Anacostia Waterfront that is becoming more and more visible. The fair will also provide a glimpse of development projects for 2009, which is shaping up as a big year.
 
So spend part of your Saturday afternoon at the fair in the beautiful new Nationals Park - on the waterfront that will soon make Washington, D.C. a world class waterfront city. 
 
Fair Panel Discussions  
There will be short presentations focusing on key elements of revitalizing the Anacostia Waterfront followed by a facilitated question and comment session:
 
- 1 p.m. - Creating a Future World-Class Waterfront
- 3 p.m. - Transportation and Development
- 4 p.m. - Environment and Open Spaces
 
These sessions will provide the audience an opportunity to address issues that affect the quality of life along the Anacostia Waterfront.

DC Youth Performances
We are especially proud of D.C.'s youth who use creative expression to motivate themselves and inspire us. One day in the not too distant future some of them will be able to perform at new venues on the revitalized Anacostia Waterfront. Enjoy performances by some our rising talent at this fair.
 
- Champions Against Crime
- East of the River Steel Band
 
Children's Activities
This is a family event. There will be balloon animals and free face-painting for young people.

Bus Tours
Free bus tours from 1 to 3:30 p.m. providing a first-hand view of several waterfront projects in Poplar Point, Waterside / SW Waterfront, and Boathouse Row
 
Free Tree Giveaways
Thanks to the Casey Trees Endowment, there will be free tree give-a-ways throughout the day. This effort reinforces idea that there are choices we make individually and actions we can take to have a positive impact on the environment around us.  Green policies and actions also guide the 20-year plan to revitalize the Anacostia Waterfront. 
 
Free Parking
Although we are strongly encouraging folks to take Metro (Green Line to Navy Yard Metro Station), free ballpark parking will be available. Garage C, Nationals Park, First and N Streets, SE.
