As part of the grand opening ceremony, and to kick off their partnership with GALA, the Columbia Heights Starbucks will be presenting the theater with a $25,000 check donation. Members of the GALA youth group, Paso Nuevo, will be at the event reciting their own original poetry at the grand opening.
