Ward 4 is the proud home base of DC’s vibrant Caribbean-American community. All throughout June, we are celebrating National Caribbean-American Heritage Month and reflecting on the great contributions of our Caribbean-American communities to Ward 4 and all of the District.
One special way to be part of the festivities is to participate in Caribbean-American Restaurant Week on June 11-17. By visiting Ward 4’s Caribbean restaurants, we can support the businesses that preserve Caribbean cuisine and culture, provide valuable jobs and entrepreneurship, and serve as a hub for community life.
