SUMMARY:Landscape Painting with Gregory Blue
DESCRIPTION:Experience the landscape firsthand in this four-session outdoor painting course taught by Studio Incamminati faculty member Gregory Blue. Held on four Saturdays in October at Natural Lands protected places – Stroud Preserve\, ChesLen Preserve\, Stoneleigh: a natural garden and Pier 68 on the Philadelphia Waterfront.

Described as “one of the nation’s top art academies” by Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine\, the school was founded by world-renowned portraitist Nelson Shanks and offers a range of programs\, including its core Advanced Fine Art Program\, continuing education courses\, workshops\, lectures\, and a BFA track in partnership with Rowan University.

SUMMARY:Amish Country Queer: A Night of Film\, Art & Drag
DESCRIPTION:An award-winning documentary\, a photo exhibition celebrating rural LGBTQ+ life\, and a homegrown drag show converge in one unforgettable night. \nAmish Country Queer is a film about Lancaster’s queer nightlife and drag culture\, and a story about what it means to be visibly\, joyfully\, unapologetically queer in a place the world told you wasn’t built for you. \nTulle Queer is an ongoing portrait series by trans artist Brady Pappas that honors the queer icons of the 717 region. Using tulle as a recurring visual motif\, the project creates a vibrant\, community-rooted celebration of visibility and resilience. \nThe Angel Hour is Lancaster’s second-longest-running drag show\, celebrating five years of glamour and sisterhood\, created by Charlize Angelz. \nThis is a night of celebration. Of queer bodies\, queer lives\, and queer autonomy. Of breaking the binaries and changing the narratives we’ve been handed about where we can live\, whom we can love\, and who we can be. Queerness has never been confined to city limits\, and this night proves it. \nAnd this is where the future gets made. Not at the center\, but at the fringes. \nAmish Country Queer: A Night of Film\, Art & Drag is presented by Little Echo Productions and co-presented by cinéSPEAK.

SUMMARY:The Savoy Company presents Trial By Jury and other Gilbert and Sullivan hits
DESCRIPTION:Delight in an evening of laughter and music! The Savoy Company returns for their annual summer performance presenting the hilarious one-act show that launched Gilbert and Sullivan’s career: Trial By Jury. This comedic operetta of legal absurdity will be staged along with a fantastic selection of some of Gilbert and Sullivan’s other greatest hits. \nGates open at 5:00 PM. Come early to picnic on the lawn or wander through the summer garden. Bring a blanket or lawn chair\, settle in\, and enjoy a delightful outdoor concert filled with wit\, whimsy\, and timeless melodies. \nPlease note: the rain date for this event is Sunday\, August 16. \nAbout the performers: \nFounded in 1901\, The Savoy Company is a Philadelphia-based 501(c)(3) non-profit theatrical organization that strives to promote community involvement and educational outreach while supporting eligible local charitable organizations through its annual production of one of thirteen extant works by Sir W.S. Gilbert and Sir Arthur S. Sullivan. \nSavoy’s membership represents a diverse group of volunteers drawn from the Greater Philadelphia area. We are committed to putting on the highest quality theatrical productions and sharing the artistic\, musical\, and cultural influences of Gilbert and Sullivan and their wonderful comic operas. \nThe Company offers opportunities for personal growth and community reinvestment for its members\, beneficiaries\, and audiences. Uniquely\, virtually all operations are delegated to and performed by committees and production staff consisting of Company members. Committee chairs and production staff are appointed each season by the sitting President. The committee chairs are responsible for directing and coordinating all efforts within the responsibility of their respective committees. In this way\, members are afforded an opportunity to share their unique skills both as performers & production staff as well as in their careers and endeavors outside of their responsibilities within the Company. \nParking: \nGuests who purchase a Stoneleigh Parking Pass will be able to park (1) car in the Stoneleigh guest lot at 1829 East County Line Road\, Villanova. This parking lot will also be available for those who need accessible parking. \nAll other guests will park at the Villanova Law School parking garage (located at 299 N Spring Mill Road)\, which is approximately 10 minutes’ walking distance from the performance location. More parking details will be provided during the week prior to the event.

SUMMARY:In Color Birding Book Club: Migrations
DESCRIPTION:Join our partners\, Philadelphia-based In Color Birding\, for their very first Book Club gathering\, where bird joy meets storytelling. \nOn Wednesday\, June 10th\, we are coming together at the Parkway Central Library to dive into Migrations by Charlotte McConaghy\, a powerful\, atmospheric novel that follows one woman’s journey alongside the last Arctic terns in a rapidly changing world. It is a story about movement\, loss\, love\, and what we hold onto when everything feels uncertain\, and we cannot wait to hear what it stirred up for you. \nThis will not be a lecture. It is a conversation. We will spend about 90 minutes reflecting on what moved us\, what challenged us\, and what we are still sitting with. Whether you finished the book\, started it\, or are just curious\, you are welcome here. \nLike all of In Color Birding Club’s gatherings\, this space is rooted in community\, curiosity\, and connection. Come as you are. Bring your thoughts\, your questions\, your perspectives\, or just come to listen. \nNeed a copy of the book? You can borrow it through the Free Library or Libby\, grab one from your local bookstore\, or use Bookshop.org or Libro.fm\, and if cost is a barrier\, In Color Birding has you covered. \nWe’ll be gathering on the 4th floor in a conference room which holds 40 people comfortably. Small refreshments will be served. The space is fully accessible\, with elevator access and restrooms on the same floor. Easy to reach by SEPTA\, and parking support is available. \nCome build something new with us\, a space for stories\, reflection\, and community. \n \n register now
