Groundbreaking today for Go-Go Museum in Anacostia
Mayor Muriel Bowser and other officials will be at the groundbreaking of a Go-Go Museum in Historic Anacostia.
The Mobile Go-Go Museum will be the first of its kind in the country. This groundbreaking museum is set to honor Go-Go music and its four-decade history.
The Go-Go museum will be located in the historic Anacostia neighborhood, and will open in the spring of 2024. The museum will also feature a café that will offer foods blending African, Caribbean, Latin, and Mumbo sauce dishes. The fusion aims to represent funk, salsa, and jazz, all the elements that make up Go-Go music.
Community Leader, Activist, and Entrepreneur, Ronald L. Moten announced plans to build the museum fifteen years ago at the 2009 Go-Go Awards.
