📰 News we're reading
• Some Metro lines to operate on different schedule during Labor Day weekend (wtop.com) — If you rely on Green Line service through Hyattsville Crossing, plan ahead this Labor Day weekend: trains won't run between Greenbelt and Hyattsville Crossing Saturday through Monday, with free shuttles every 8–10 minutes instead. Greenbelt and College Park stations will be closed for upgrades, while other lines mostly run normally, so Hyattsville riders should allow extra travel time. 
• 7 things to do in the capital region, including Afro Plus Festival (thebanner.com) — Hyattsville residents can explore their own Arts District this weekend with the Passport to Hyattsville promotion, visiting local shops like new consignment store De Novo for a chance at prizes. The guide also spotlights a Hyattsville-based artist's body-focused installation in Bethesda, plus major Labor Day events from Afro Plus Festival to comedy and theater across the region.
