SUMMARY:Printmaking By the People: Silkscreens & Signatures
DESCRIPTION:A printmaking collaboration with The Arts League – join  us to learn about Philly’s rich history of printmaking and learn to silkscreen!\n\n\nJoin artists Kathryn Lien\, Justin Keller and civics teacher Grace Palladino in exploring Philly’s rich printmaking history\, the world’s most famous break-up letter and how to start a revolution! Then\, make your own poster with a message that you think should be included in an updated Declaration! Choose from three dates in May and June for a screen-printing workshop offered in collaboration with The Arts League. \n \nParticipants will be taking a deep dive into the history of the Declaration itself\, the writers and who they ripped off and some lesser known Philadelphians who brought it to the masses. Participants will also be learning how to screen print and taking home an original work inspired by the document and our fair city’s storied past. \n \nThis event is part of Mural Arts’ Printmaking by the People\, a city-wide project that will help commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration by asking Philadelphians the question\, if the Declaration were to be written today\, what rights would you want it to include? Come join us and have a chance for your work to serve as inspiration for an upcoming mural and to be shown in an exhibition at the Free Library! \nNo prior printing experience is necessary

SUMMARY:TERRA: Bodies and Territories
DESCRIPTION:The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education presents TERRA: Bodies and Territories\, an immersive performance staged outdoors on forested land. This innovative theatrical work is the creation of Silvana Cardell\, an acclaimed choreographer whose work contends with social struggles. TERRA: Bodies and Territories confronts the profound shared vulnerabilities between women’s bodies and the natural environment. In this highly experimental work\, a multi-generational ensemble of women and femme dancers enact a sequence of symbolic narratives.\nComposer Devin Arne amplifies the drama of the forest with a sound score that blends field recordings and musical instrumentation. Sculptural set pieces by visual artist Sarah Kavage and costumes by Vasi Zivanic visually complement the natural environment\, the dancers’ movements\, and Cardell’s conceptual themes.\nTERRA will be performed outdoors on June 13\, 14\, 15 and 20\, 21\, and 22.\nPurchase Tickets\nPerformance Space\nTERRA is performed outdoors in a forested space with open seating. Audience members are invited to sit on natural log “seats” and stand or move freely in the performance space. If you need assistance with accommodations due to mobility limitations or if you require guaranteed seating\, please check “yes” on the registration form when you purchase tickets. In case of severe weather\, ticket holders will be contacted via email about rescheduled performances.\nGetting to the Schuylkill Center\nThe Schuylkill Center is located in Upper Roxborough\, Northwest Philadelphia\, at 8480 Hagy’s Mill Road\, Philadelphia\, PA 19128.

SUMMARY:20s/30s Hike: 4.5-mile Phoenixville\, PA Trek: Scenic Views and Good Times
DESCRIPTION:Phoenixville is known for its fun downtown area\, which includes historic architecture and a lively arts\, restaurant and brewery scene. Beginning Memorial Day weekend\, Phoenixville’s main avenue\, Bridge St\, turns into a busy pedestrian walkway on Saturdays and Sundays. \nOur hike will begin 1.7 miles from town at the Reynolds Dog Park\, which has a sizeable parking lot and clean restroom facilities. We will walk on the wide\, flat\, gravel towpath trail into Phoenixville. Along the way\, we will pass Fitzwater Station\, a popular canal-side restaurant with outdoor dining and canoe/kayak rentals. Depending on the weather\, we may see kayakers\, the occasional fisherman\, and local turtles sunning on logs in the canal. When we arrive in Phoenixville\, we will walk several blocks up\, then down\, Bridge Street. Highpoints will include the $5 parking lot at Holy Ghost Church\, key restaurants\, specialty shops and breweries. We will then return to the towpath and walk back to our cars for a total of about 4.5 miles. \nSet aside some time in the evening to return to Phoenixville and explore the places in town that interest you. Some group members may agree on a favorite brewery or restaurant and head back into town for a sip and a sandwich. \nWear comfortable walking shoes – the towpath can be muddy after a rain – and layer clothing according to the temperature. Its always good to bring water\, especially on a warm day. Because we will walk through downtown crowds and poke our heads in stores and breweries\, we can’t include dogs in our adventure. \nWe will meet in the parking lot around 3:15pm for our 3:30pm departure. The address is Reynolds Dog Park\, 1000 Longford Rd\, Phoenixville\, 19460. Use this address if Goggle coordinates seem questionable. Use Google maps for best results. (Note: Some online sources say 100 Longford Rd. I think 1000 is correct) \nSeriously bad weather will cancel the outing\, so check the hike status around 1:30pm. \nPlease note: In order to comply with Pennsylvania Youth Protection Laws\, all children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. This policy applies for all events offered by the Delaware Valley Chapter as well as any other Chapter events within the state of Pennsylvania.
