Dancing in the streets…

We recently had a gift of an outdoor concert for our most recent block party…

I’m so grateful to everyone who was a part of it!

(And we’ll do it again on June 4th for West Philly Porchfest…)

Just closing off the street to traffic is a special thing worth doing…

(The city lets you do it 5 times a year, so organize your neighbors and get started!)

A part of Philly’s amazing WPO Balkan brass band ensemble…

… and having WPO play on our block has long been a dream of mine…

All the way from Ohio: Oberlin College’s Steel Pan Ensemble:

… while having OSteel’s 18-piece Trinidadian steel pan ensemble was a surprise bonus alignment of the stars…

The streets were filled with such sweet music…

… and so many great neighbors…

… and sweet connections into the late night.

Save the date for West Philly Porchfest!

Porchfest is Saturday June 4th – we’ll have another fabulous afternoon show starting at 2pm w/ Joy Ike & Driftwood Solider, and a potluck / BBQ to follow into the evening.

Here’s what it looked like!
