The association’s San Miguel Committee will host a celebration from 1-3 p.m. on Sunday at Abi’s Azteca Grill, a Salvadoran and Mexican restaurant at 3005 Columbia Pike that is celebrating its 40th anniversary. The event will feature a DJ, trivia and traditional Salvadoran folklore dancing.


Around Town

Businesses participating in next month’s Arlington Restaurant Week offered a preview of what they have in store at a tasting last night (Thursday).

Events

While Arlington is entering the later days of the summer, a full schedule of outdoor events continues through August.

Movie showings, live concerts and the Arlington County Fair are sure to draw crowds in the maybe-not-so-blistering heat of the late-ish season. Other outdoor attractions range from Rosslyn’s Dark Star Park Day to an outdoor bonsai class in Pentagon City.
