SUMMARY:The Release Oasis: A Multi-Sensory Experience of Movement & Sound
DESCRIPTION:Join Us for an Evening of Release with Yoga\, Sound Therapy\, Fire Ceremony & Tribal Ecstatic Dance\n\n\nThis is the 2nd installment of The Release Oasis\, an event in the dome at Life Do Grow Farm (Urban Creators). Come release anything that is no longer serving you through the modalities of movement & sound. This will be a 4-hour experience that will include a yoga flow by Adonis\, a multiple player sound bath experience featuring James & Kuan\, a journaling/fire release ceremony\, and a tribal themed ecstatic dance party by DJ Pierre Paloma to enhance the energy of releasing through movement. \nAdonis Rosario is a multi-faceted healer. From holistic health coaching to yoga teacher\, he helps many with finding the tools within themselves and guiding them to healing. Adonis will lead an asana (yoga movement) practice to loosen everyone up and transition into a meditation before immersing everyone in sacred sound vibrations. \nJames Lamar is a certified sound bath facilitator and recording artist in Philadelphia\, PA. He is certified by sound healer Ana Netanel of Shakti Sound Bath in Los Angeles\, CA. James is the product of a talented bassist\, guitarist\, and musician of a father & a soul music loving mother who taught him harmony when he was 5 years old. His musical talents led him to the All Eastern Chorus\, studying music at Temple\, and having his own original music released on all streaming platforms. Since his sound bath certification in the summer of 2019\, James has shared these sacred frequencies in multiple spaces around Los Angeles\, Northeastern PA\, and Philadelphia. James’ debut meditation single is available everywhere\, “Meditative Soundscape: Crystal Singing Bowls”. \nKuan Young is a Philadelphia native\, who is known for being an artist\, artisan and business owner. Kuan has studied the science & power of sound\, which he now uses to heal himself\, his family\, underserved communities\, and individuals seeking vibrational guidance. Kuan attended the University of the Arts where he curated several public events. He owned a wellness center\, Sol Garden Studio\, where he offered various wellness practices to the city. Currently\, Kuan is giving back through his non-profit organization\, “The Garden Godfather\, Inc.” where he provides environmental awareness & social justice to youth\, adults\, and elders alike. Kuan is a featured sound healer. \nPierre “Paloma” Nix is unique in the fact that he is both a DJ and percussionist. His sound is a hybrid of his acoustic drumming with international grooves\, hip-hop soul\, and dancefloor fillers. When he is not creating his own music\, he is a part of the Philadelphia-based music collective Worldtown Soundsystem.

Rai believes in healthy living in not just food\, but in the mind and body and promotes mental health and self love at the core of our existence. Rai was educated in the Philadelphia school district\, attending Philadelphia High school for Girls before traveling to Virginia and attending Hampton University.  \nWhen Rai became vegan in 2017\, she noticed the big difference in food offerings across food desert neighborhoods in Philadelphia\, and started a vegan food company called the FUN Kitchen. FUN is an acronym for Feasible Understandable and Nourishing and the company was formed with a mission to create access to healthier food.  \nSince 2017\, Fun Kitchen has been breaking down the stereotypes of healthy food using vegan and plant-based cuisines as a vehicle to educate\, uplift\, and support the community. This passion has allowed Rai to travel as a celebrity private chef and receive features in publications such as 6abc and Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center. Rai has made her life about passion and purpose and loves connecting with like minded individuals in an effort to build community to create a healthier world. \n\n\n\nMore about Black Lotus HHC\n \n \nBlack Lotus Holistic Healing Collective is known for is a space designed for BIPOC healers/practitioners to be centered in the healing in order for them to heal those in the BIPOC community. Vibrational healing is the ancient art of healing with sound; it traces back to ancient Egypt & Tibet. Sound vibrations can heal the physical body at a cellular level by adjusting blockages and imbalances. These imbalances can cause the body to have a slower frequency vibration which may lead to dis-ease or illnesses. Natural healing sound frequencies can be transferred or introduced externally or directly into the body to create a more harmonious state.\n \n \nAt Black Lotus\, we combine the use of crystal chakra singing bowls\, gongs\, tuning forks\, and more to give a relaxing & transformative experience. We can balance chakras\, repair auras\, uplift the mood or help with grounding. Vibrational healing is a great tool for meditation\, alleviating stress\, and relaxing stiff or sore muscles.\n \n \nFor more visit: www.diasporaeducationalservices.org/black-lotus\n \n \nhttps://linktr.ee/blacklotushhc \n\n\n\nD﻿IRECTIONS: \nBlack Lotus is not on Lincoln Drive despite the address…it is actually on Rittenhousetown Lane.

SUMMARY:The Wissahickon in August with Debbie Hoellein\, Andi Wingert & Jim McClory
DESCRIPTION:Meet at Arrow Athletic Field Parking Lot\, Magdalena Street and Walnut Lane \nJoin Andi\, Jim\, and Debbie as we hike the Wissahickon in August. We last did this hike in February when the temperature was in the mid 40s and some plants were just starting to bud. Now instead of vistas\, we will have lots of native and non-native plants to observe. And we will need to see Toleration up close instead of from across the creek. We expect to hear birds\, although it will be more difficult to see them. Besides visiting one of the 3 statues in Wissahickon Valley Park \, we will see other points of historical interest as we walk over and under 3 bridges. \nThis hike is about 3.5 miles and there are some rocky ascents and descents. There is parking in the lot across from the clubhouse of the Walnut Lane Golf Club on Magdalena Street. Children 12 years of age and older are welcome when accompanied by an adult\, but please\, no dogs except for service animals. \nDistance: ~3.5 miles \nLevel: Difficult (many inclines and declines\, uneven surfaces) \nUnless otherwise specified\, Trail Ambassador Walks may be on rocky\, rugged trails that may be wet and slippery. Wear sturdy shoes or boots with socks. Walks are canceled in heavy rain. Service animals are always welcome. For more information\, contact Claire Brennan at brennan@fow.org. Visit www.fow.org for updates.

SUMMARY:Sugar Don't Go on Grits
DESCRIPTION:Sugar Don’t Go on Grits: An Archival Look at The Great Migration’s Effect on How We Eat\n\n\nHow Black is sweet cornbread? Do WE put marshmallows on sweet potato casserole?  “Sugar Don’t Go On Grits: An Archival Look at The Great Migration’s Effect on How We Eat” will be a conversational space dedicated to retracing the divergent pathways of the African American culinary tradition. Leaning on archival materials\, we’ll highlight how Black people altered recipes in different areas of the United States due to the availability of ingredients and to match local tastes while reflecting on how these changes have led us to debate the cultural appropriateness of foods we eat. Food & culture historian Donna Battle Pierce and restauranteur and food expert Valerie Erwin will be joining the conversation. This event was produced jointly by University of Mississippi Libraries and the Culinary Literacy Center of the Free Library of Philadelphia.  \nR﻿egister for the event at: https://olemiss.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_XqeRlRVJRVqnbiwqJec7Iw

SUMMARY:Lapidary Info Sesh
DESCRIPTION:Look at some rocks and learn about how you can utilize them in your own creative practices.\n\n\nI hope to establish the Philadelphia Lapidary society\, because I love cutting rocks\, but I don’t know anybody else who does this\, and I desperately need to share the joy that this art form brings me. At the initial meeting\, I hope to talk with folks about what they feel the group should look like\, lay some ground rules for equipment sharing and general courtesy\, and do some hands-on instruction with folks about cutting and polishing minerals! My hope is that the org will become self-sufficient like many other Lapidary Societies throughout the country are\, with an operating volunteer board.  – Your Host M. Sheppeck \nIf you have any questions leading up to the event\, feel free to reach out to me at Sheppecksays@gmail.com \nT﻿he Location: This event is held at The Craft Coven’s space in Cherry Street Pier. Plan to arrive a bit early because the pier is a large space. We are located in studio 14 on the second floor. Unfortunately there are no elevators to the second floor. You will need to go up a very large flight of steps to get to the second floor. The space is heated/cooled inside the pier and there are bathrooms located on site (on the first floor). There are often installations and events around the pier\, and the larger space is open from 12-9pm most days. Look at their events HERE and you could make a whole day out of your visit!
