If you didn't have the typical equipment used, it is a holiday about the spirit of it all. This is truly represented in its avoidance of commercialism as much as possible and focus on more authentic materials with care. Less manufacturing and more sustainable. Caring for the world and promoting a vegan diet optionally tends to vibe well with the culture. There is also an outdoor amphitheater I heard about only open for events on warmer months and apparently an Oasis type community that seems to be for the local community. Food being sold by Spirit Foods at One Art events may become a staple at this center with the pending process of Spirit Foods moving from their old location to this one. The people who work and manage the center here are sophisticated, yet also down-to-earth and able to relate to and support the local community. As a non-vegan and a non-local to the immediate community and culture, I was extremely an outsider feeling completely out of place but also completely welcome to join the festivities too.

What a funky venue. My wife and I came here for the first time for the Alexandr Misko and Forest…read moreBailey guitar concert. We loved this converted silent movie hall that has been open for four years now but has been standing for many decades. The venue has a mish mash of seating with folding chairs, couches, office chairs, and some plastic new wave stuff. Everything is general seating so if you get there early you can snag one of the more comfortable chairs. Even though they are in the back, you can clearly see and hear perfectly. The owners also shelled out monies to build a balcony which has some hightop chairs and more comfortable office chairs around some tables. The closest seats to the stage have small round tables. The lighting was fun colors of strobe lights and a little bit of disco. There is also a stand with sodas and small snacks but they provide free (yes, it's free) popcorn. Salty, and you'll probably then want to buy a $2 soda. All staff were quite friendly. Check-in was a breeze as they had all names and you just showed your tickets. A bonus with your ticket is the 10% off your food at the Mexican restaurant almost next door. We were lucky to snag a street parking spot but you can park at the train station. My wife and I had a great time and loved the Fallser Club. Ticket prices for this show were only $20 each ($25 at the door) and there were about 130 at the show for a main guest who has performed all over the world. Great value. We'll be checking out what other shows may be coming around.

I'm a little obsessed with the new venue I discovered over the weekend. I caught a show on a Sunday…read moreevening featuring the amazing PJ and the Resistance. Both the venue and the talent are something special. Entrance to the show was only $20 and they offered $2 tickets for disabled individuals. When you enter you will find unique word art, velvet curtains, and the smell of complementary fresh movie theater style pop corn. There was a bar stocked with Vismos and some delicious canned cocktails by Top Dog. The Blood Orange Margarita was amazing! Cocktails were also very reasonably priced, 3 drinks totaled $24. The seating is mixed with comfy couches, chairs, loungers along with cocktail tables in front of the stage. We opted to use the upstairs area as we had a large party and enjoyed mingling between sets. The upstairs is not handicap accessible so plan to hang out on the first floor and enjoy the up close entertainment views of stairs are an issue. It was interesting to hear about the other events being hosted like a hackathon and a women's healthcare forum. This business is very blue which made me love it even more. I've included the QR code in my photos where you can catch their the wide variety of events on their very packed schedule. It's important to know that there is only street parking available so leave time to find a spot. Parking was free which was great! You do need to parallel park so be prepared if you aren't used to doing that. Fallser guests are also offered a 10% discount on food before or after the show at an amazing Mexican eatery Nextdoor called Cresta. I 100% recommend you take advantage of this. Heir rooftop bar is amazing! I love the community feel and the way the businesses on the street supported each other. I really am looking forward to seeing more shows and events at this very special venue.

Highly recommended summer day camp for kids Grade 1 through 8 during the month of July only. My son…read morehad a total blast at this camp and learned a lot with his fellow campers. College students in the education department lead this program, with close guidance from their professors. There are plenty of outdoor activities as well as indoor lessons. The price was unbelievable, just $150 a week. Does not include lunch, we were asked to brown bag it. For an 8 to 4 day camp, I'm sure you will never beat that. Nothing even comes close.

Something just didn't feel right as we wanted less cheesy sales and just a true talented band who was all about the music and performance and not the marketing. We came across Patrice and the Show at a friends wedding and hired them right away. Words cannot express the level of talent this group has... We had relatives from Chicago and New York get their information to have them perform at their family weddings and events. As you can imagine, New York and Chicago have many talented groups but the fact that we have people from our wedding hiring this group speaks volumes about their talent! I have heard many bands perform but none can compare to the level of not only talent but entertainment this group possesses. My biggest advice to future couples is the music is by far the most important part of making your wedding day special and memorable!!! We had everyone to my 15 year old cousins and my 80 year grandmother and everyone in between dancing the entire time! Their genre of music is out of this world! Go check out this band, you will not regret it!!

Although I only went here for two sessions, as someone who thoroughly enjoys the circus arts, this…read moreestablishment was fabulous! The location is far off the beaten path, and with good reason. When you are in the flying trapeze rig, it is nestled into a tree-lined area in a relatively suburban location of Philly. This makes it adorable and charming, but, if you have allergies or sensitivities to outdoor buggies and things, just be careful. I might have had some bites that made me very uncomfortable later. During the sessions, I loved it. The staff here are kind, supportive and helpful. They are skilled and talented. It is more fun than you could imagine, so just try it out! They provide incredible feedback, so, just wait for it. Very helpful! I didn't try anything but flying trapeze, so I cannot attest to the other classes, but if I were in Phily for more than a day trip, I would absolutely try the other options for aerial and circus arts. Flying trapeze is so much fun, and in this tree-lined area, it feels very much like being in someone's back-yard as a kid flying around with an exhilarating feeling of freedom. Don't fret - the staff will keep you safe as you soar, literally, to new heights. Parking is not in a lot but on the street, so good luck finding street parking. There are lots of streets around, you just might need to walk a few blocks. Totally worth it though! Bring water and snacks if you want to stay hydrated and might run low on your energy. The building you enter to check in is an old-fashioned building made of stone, and it has a cool feel to it. Love this place!

I came here by public transportation from Old City, Philadelphia on a Tuesday evening in late June…read more2022. It took almost an hour for me to get there with all the transfers but the public transportation section of Google Maps made it super easy. If you're staying in Philly without a car, which I would highly recommend, you should get a Travel Wallet/SEPTA Key Card. The SEPTA App makes it super easy to reload money into your Key Card as you use it throughout your stay. I took their intermediate fabrics class and had a terrific time. The class was the right level more me as I had told them my prior aerial experience through email before registering for the class. I told them I can do a few straight arm inversions, a triple star, wheel-downs, and have been doing aerials silks for 3.5 years at that point. If you have trouble registering, just email them and they are fairly responsive. Rachel taught the class and we did a 5-minute warm up on the floor before some shoulder shrugs and a warm up climb of choice before jumping into the sequence - pretty appropriate for an hour long class, in my opinion. They have a communal rosin container for people to share and everyone wore their masks throughout the entire class. They even have a communal water fountain. I forgot to bring my water bottle but when I asked Rachel for a disposable cup she went to the back and found one for me - such a life saver in that humid heat. It didn't look like they had air conditioning but their windows are open and the fans did what they could. The space looked like an old church that was converted into a circus school. The ceilings were very high and the space was big enough to have two other classes going on at the same time. I learned a lot from Rachel and would highly recommend it if you're looking for a circus class to take in Philadelphia.
