We’re honored to announce that Andy Shallal, founder and CEO of Busboys and Poets, will be providing welcoming remarks at our 40th anniversary EcoExtravaganza celebration on Friday, October 19 at the Arlington Arts Center. Andy’s vision in building the Busboys and Poets restaurants in DC, Virginia and Maryland has resulted in gathering spaces that are critical institutions in their communities. Busboys and Poets restaurants are where art, culture and politics intentionally collide over mindfully sourced food, drinks and programming that feeds the mind body and soul.
Busboys and Poets has also been at the forefront of environmental stewardship being one of the first businesses in Washington DC to be 100% wind powered and are at the cutting edge of the local/sustainable food movement winning many awards for its innovative, conscious cuisine.
