Market Street Diamonds participates DC Capital Pride 2018
The Capital Pride 2018 Celebration kicked off on June 7th & continues through Sunday, June 10th, and Market Street Diamonds is thrilled to be part of the event in Washington, DC. We’ve once again partnered with HOT 99.5 & will be showing our continued solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community.
This year’s theme, “Elements of Us”, has a powerful message behind it. As described on the Capital Pride Alliance website, “We are constantly challenged to celebrate and appreciate what makes each of us unique, while at the same time we are called to recognize that our common elements bind us together, each to the other. Thus, collectively through Pride, we can create a powerful foundation that will help us advance the cause of human dignity, equal rights, and a world free from discrimination and prejudice.” We couldn’t be more proud to honor such a supportive, strong and compassionate community.

Dino was born into the business, and grew up helping his dad and Uncles at their shops in Silver Spring, Maryland with jewelry creations and luxury watch repair.

He is very hands on and reviews every offer to ensure his customers are getting the best care possible.
