A 30-year-old woman who works at a D.C. music venue is missing after she was last seen in Adams Morgan early Friday, prompting a public plea for information. Madeline Avillion was last seen around 6 a.m., and her disappearance has drawn urgent attention from the local entertainment community.

According to NBC Washington, Culture in Ivy City is asking anyone who may know where Avillion is to come forward. The venue said no piece of information is too small to mention.

Culture’s official website describes the Ivy City business as a flexible event space for live music, art installations, weddings and private events. The venue’s appeal has put one of D.C.’s nightlife workplaces at the center of a search unfolding across the city.

Police Shared Avillion’s Description

Avillion is 5 feet 2 inches tall and weighs about 100 pounds, with blonde hair and blue eyes, NBC Washington reported. Police said she was last seen wearing a black bodysuit, a black skirt and white cowboy boots.

Anyone who may have seen Avillion or has information about her whereabouts should share it with police. For the venue and the people who know her, the message is simple: even a seemingly minor detail could help move the search forward.
