HubChats presents a panel discussion on October 5, 2023, titled "When Yesterday Meets Tomorrow: Being Black in Ballet Today & Asking Questions." Delving into this important topic, the discussion features renowned dancer Meredith Rainey, in conversation with Tommie-Waheed Evans, a 2021 Guggenheim Fellow known for his groundbreaking work as a queer black dance maker. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Evans has faced the challenges of gang warfare, racial divide, and earthquakes, all while pursuing his passion for dance. Currently serving as an Artist-in-Residence at Philadanco and a faculty member at the University of the Arts, Evans brings a unique perspective to the conversation. Joining them is Rainey's Dramaturg Theresa Ruth Howard, an esteemed ballet faculty member at Sarah Lawrence College and Marymount, as well as the Ailey School for over 18 years. This panel discussion promises to shed light on the experiences and challenges faced by black dancers in the world of ballet today. Don't miss this opportunity to delve into this important dialogue. The event will be held at the Performance Garage in Philadelphia, located at 1515 Brandywine Street, Philadelphia, PA 19130. Admission to this thought-provoking discussion is free.

A great piece of US history. You can easily spend a very informative afternoon roaming its halls and learning more about the declaration of independence.

Philadelphia was once the capital of the United States, so there is plenty of history, museums, monuments, and sites around the city. The Philadelphia Museum of Art boasts a nice array of exhibits. I visited on a Friday evening after work because museum admission is free Friday evenings (pay what you wish). I did pay for parking at their garage, which was only $5.

I feel that the attractions in downtown Philadelphia are really excellent. The historic sites near the Liberty Bell are under the unified management of National Park. Opposite the Liberty Bell is a large visitor center where you can consult Philadelphia&#39;s travel guide. The staff and volunteers here are also very enthusiastic to help give travel advice and answer consultation questions. There is also a small souvenir shop here, where you can buy refrigerator magnets, notebooks, postcards and other related Philadelphia souvenirs.

There are also exhibition explanations in the visitor center. Although it is relatively miniature compared to the museum, it still does not affect the number of tourists here. If you come by car, there is a parking lot in the basement of the Independence Hall Visitor Center for everyone to park. Although parking in the city center of Philadelphia is not very convenient and parking spaces are not easy to find, it is recommended that everyone park in the underground parking lot of the visitor center. If you come during the peak season, you need to apply for the ticket to the Independence Hall at the visitor center first, but I don&rsquo;t know if it is because of the epidemic. You don&rsquo;t need to take a ticket when you come, you can go directly to visit.
