SUMMARY:Spirit Guides: Clay Mask-making Workshop!
DESCRIPTION:Explore Afro-diasporic mask traditions while learning introductory clay handbuilding techniques to create their your expressive masks!\n\n\nMasks carry memory. They hold spirit\, resistance\, celebration\, protection\, and transformation. \nIn this immersive clay workshop at ACAF in Philadelphia\, participants will be introduced to a glimpse of Afro-diasporic mask histories across continents—beginning with ceremonial mask traditions of West and Central Africa\, tracing their transformation through the Caribbean and South America during and after the transatlantic slave trade\, and exploring how these visual languages continue to evolve in contemporary U.S. cultural practices. \nTogether\, we’ll examine how masks function as portals and preservation of identity. \nParticipants will then learn handbuilding techniques to create their own clay masks. \n✨ No experience necessary \n✨ All clay & supplies included \nThis workshop uses air-dry clay\, so pieces will require about 24 hours to fully dry before painting.

SUMMARY:Cathedral Park Community Meeting
DESCRIPTION:51st and Lancaster is about to experience significant development that will impact the quality of life for residents. Voice your concerns!!\n\n\nFor years\, we’ve been standing up to what has often felt like a giant. Predatory Development. While many of you may not have seen it\, we’ve been quietly doing the work—showing up at City Hall\, meeting with our elected officials\, standing with our elders in the face of predatory developers\, and gathering community leaders to chart a path forward. We’ve approached these conversations with integrity\, hoping collaboration was possible. Instead\, we’ve been told that what our community wants doesn’t matter. \nClearly they don’t know how we roll!! \nThey don’t know what happens when a community remembers its power. They don’t know what happens when neighbors lock arms\, when generations come together\, when we are guided by the wisdom of our ancestors and rooted in love for the place we call home. \nWe invite you to join us for this important community meeting on August 23 at 6:30 PM (details below). Come learn what’s at stake\, stand alongside your neighbors\, and help shape the future of our community. \nWe are not standing down. We are standing together. 🤎 \n \nThe entrance is on the northside of the parking lot on Master. \n \nVirtual link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81479808725?pwd=9tqgav9atqr7byhmixu4dswpgbrubo.1

SUMMARY:Meditation Mondays
DESCRIPTION:You are welcome here. We sit not to flee the world\, but to return to it softer\, sharper\, more present—together in the warmth of community.\n\n\nWith over twenty-five years of shared practice\, Mamalaika Hart and Noelle Warford invite you to gather in stillness at One Art Community Center in West Philly. \nEach week\, our community sits becomes a gentle return—to posture\, to silence\, to the rhythm of breath. Together\, we practice arriving in our bodies and the present moment\, meeting whatever arises with curiosity\, compassion\, and care. \nThis is an invitation to build sangha—a circle of practice where we show up for ourselves and for one another\, week after week. For those seeking a commitment to quiet the mind and sit with all that is present\, this is your place. \nWe sit together to sharpen our collective focus—to be fully here\, awake and embodied\, in a time that asks everything of us. \nBring a cushion if you like. No experience or equipment needed. Donations are welcome and help support this community space and the equipment provided.

SUMMARY:"Possession: Body\, Memory\, Home " Gallery at Scribe
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Friday\, July 24\, 4 – 6:30 PM \nThis exhibit brings together the work of artists Jihan Thomas\, Efi Green\, and Linda Fernandez in an exhibition exploring healing\, identity\, and self-possession through deeply personal visual language. Across painting\, mixed media\, abstraction\, and symbolism\, the artists transform experiences of grief\, motherhood\, migration\, mental health\, and cultural memory into spaces of reflection and resilience. Rooted in vivid color\, expressive gesture\, and layered storytelling\, Possession considers home not only as a physical place\, but as something carried within the body\, memory\, and spirit. Together\, these works affirm art’s power to hold vulnerability\, transformation\, and collective care in times of uncertainty. \nFREE \nThe exhibition will be on view at Scribe Video Center Monday through Friday\, 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM\, from July 24 to September 12. \nThe Gary Smalls Gallery Project at Scribe is curated by Tamara Mason.

Leave feeling a little lighter\, a little more grounded\, and deeply reminded that you don’t have to do this alone.
