Y’all remember in Sister Act 2 the mantra?
Puts finger to ear* 🎤 If you wanna be somebody, if you wanna go somewhere you better wake up and paaaaayyyyy attention.

That’s what it’s giving 😂

Shout out to these wonderful people for coming out for the @afromationavenue tour and blessing the box one time!
It was an honor having y’all in the space.

Congratulations on making the squad!!!! (Y’all not seeing them - period)

It warmed my heart opening the box and walking in to people dancing in the mirror immediately. That’s what it’s for. Hope y’all enjoyed the block.

This is the Germantown Arts District. This is the Germantown Renaissance— we on

This past weekend Mayor Kenney made his way to the block to shop in the Germantown Arts District for Small Business Saturday. Of course we made sure he had a great time and remembered the importance of REST.

During his visit to the box - we hosted some of our @kinesicsdancedynamics family in the @philadelphiacontemporary Supine Horizons exhibit. Sharing with our community the importance arts and collaboration during this cultural shift is definately something we can’t wait to do more of.

The KDD theatre is a blackbox theatre space dedicated to supporting local artists as they create the world of their dreams. We support artists in incubation and presentation through partnerships and collaborations.

Thank you to @phlcommerce, @germantowncdc, and @phillymayor for such a experience.

Congratulations to the Germantown Arts District on an AMAZING debut!

Supine Horizons is an immersive site for rest, resistance and renewal, featuring synthesized sound and projected visuals by local multimedia artist Gralin Hughes, Jr. (Television Sky)

Supine Horizons seeks to dismantle the idea that rest is solely a luxury or a privilege and aims to subvert capitalist ideals of “hustle” and “grind” culture, to instead center rest as the ultimate form of self-care and collective healing, particularly for the Black community.

——•••••••••••••——

Join us tonight for a live performance by Chaka Benson, founder of POC modular art collective “blk patches,” and Gralin Hughes, Jr.
