SUMMARY:Design A Doodad: Travel Game Zine
DESCRIPTION:BARRIO TELEVISION (work in progress) by Christina DiPasquale\n(USA\, 2026\, TBD) \nBARRIO TELEVISION uncovers the story of Puerto Rican activists who produced the first bilingual Latino television series to air nationwide called “Realidades.” After tracing U.S. complicity in the 1973 coup in Chile\, “Realidades” received backlash and the Nixon administration moved to cut public-media funding\, knocking the show off the air. Undeterred\, the creators mounted a comeback—training media makers in Philadelphia\, organizing a media coalition\, and sparking a fight for media power that continues to this day. \nChristina DiPasquale is a Colombian-American storyteller based in Philadelphia dedicated to advancing participatory media practices rooted in collective memory and movement-building.

SUMMARY:Screening: "You Don't Have to Go Home\, But..." by Aidan Un
DESCRIPTION:You Don’t Have to Go Home\, But . . .by Aidan Un (USA\, 2024\, 78 min) is an ode to dancing bodies\, a grimy love letter to Philly\, a story about what to do when the DJ has played the last song\, the club’s lights come on\, and you gotta go . . . somewhere. Following dancers at different stages of their artistic lives\, with legendary party Second Sundae as backdrop\, this film examines the possibility of spiritual fulfillment in a socioeconomic configuration that ultimately doesn’t value the practices that make us free. \nThe evening will also feature the next generation of storytellers\, opening with “Hop Hop Life”\, produced through Scribe’s Documentary History Project for Youth (DHPY). The event will also feature appearances by Second Sundae dancers who helped shape the scene\, joining Un for a post-screening discussion about the community\, history\, and influence of hip-hop culture.

SUMMARY:2nd Hand Circus Scrap Night : Sustainable Love
DESCRIPTION:Love Letters to Old Things\nA Sustainability Valentine’s Scrap Night \nOn the eve of Valentine’s Day\, 2nd Hand Circus invites you to fall back in love — with the things that have been left behind. \nScrap Night is a curated evening of short circus works made from thrifted\, passed-down\, recycled\, or once-forgotten objects. Eight circus artists each receive (or bring) a secondhand item and transform it into a brand-new act. Think juggling\, contortion\, aerial\, fashion experiments\, and delightful curiosity — all sparked by old stuff with a story. \nThis Scrap Night leans into Valentine’s Day through a sustainability lens:\n💘 loving what you already have\n💘 repairing instead of replacing\n💘 choosing care\, creativity\, and reuse \nBecause sustainability is an act of love — for objects\, for people\, and for the future. \n2nd Hand Circus is a new performance company creating spaces for creative ingenuity rooted in sustainability. Scrap Night is our playground and our laboratory: a low-stakes\, high-curiosity experiment asking artists to think outside the box and make something meaningful from what already exists. \nWhat can you make from what’s been left behind?\nCome watch these artists find out. \nFebruary 13\n📍 Thunderbird Hall — 2856 Frankford Ave\, Philadelphia\, PA 19134 (at E Cambria St) NOTE: This event is NOT at Thunderbird Salvage!\n🕗 Show at 8pm | Doors at 7:30pm \n🎟 Tickets: $35–$75 (all tickets includes two drink tickets)\nNOTAFLOF options available at the door\nBar on site + food available \nBefore or after the show\, browse the 2nd Hand Circus Thrift Store and explore Thunderbird Hall’s estate items\, surplus\, tools\, and legendary $2-per-pound bins. \nAccessibility note: Thunderbird Hall is up one full flight of stairs with a landing halfway. \nCome for the circus. Stay for the romance.\nBreak up with fast fashion. 💔♻️

The class is open to kids ages 6+. Parents for kids 6-13 are asked to stay; parents are welcome to play along\, though will not be given individual guidance. \nThis class encourages creativity\, fine motor skills\, and hands-on exploration in a supportive and playful environment.
