Rhode Island Avenue Main Street Logo Survey
FoRIA is launching the RIA Main Street program. Help us pick the new logo! RIA community members: Vote, then share with families and friends. Know any businesses who you think should join the RIA community? Send along to them as well. RIA businesses: Vote, and then share with other businesses along the RIA corridor. And, if you have friends and colleagues who could be potential future RIA business owners – share with them as well. Let’s get the word out about the great things that are coming to RIA! Other DC metro community members or businesses: We’d love your thoughts, too! Great things are continuing to happen along RIA. We’d love to invite you to be part of the action. You can vote for more than one logo or leave feedback on things you like or don’t like. Our goal is to have a version with Rhode Island Avenue spelled out as well as a shorter version for smaller materials. Voting will close at 5pm Wednesday, March 26.
