SUMMARY:Mural Arts Climate Justice Mural Dedication
DESCRIPTION:The climate crisis can be overwhelming. How can we deal with all of our complicated feelings? What kinds of actions can we take\, individually and collectively\, to make a difference? And what is the role of art in supporting movements for climate justice? \nIn 2020\, Mural Arts Philadelphia convened a group of two dozen artists\, activists\, and organizers from across Lenapehoking (the original homelands of the Lenape people) to tackle these enormous questions. The result is a brand-new\, 400-foot-long mural showing the past\, present\, and future of climate justice (and injustice) in our communities and across the region. \nOn Saturday\, October 7\, as part of Mural Arts Month and in celebration of Indigenous People’s Day\, we will gather at the site of the new mural (1800 N. American St.) to celebrate\, mourn\, and plan our next steps together. Hear from project collaborators about their connection to this artwork\, with a special focus on leaders and organizers from Black and Indigenous communities. Special musical guest Philharmonia choir will perform selections from the new work Elegy For the Earth\, by Philadelphia-area composer Adam B. Silverman. Jerome Shabazz\, Executive Director of the Overbrook Environmental Center\, will deliver the keynote speech. \nThis event will coincide with Art For the Cash Poor\, a large & affordable local art market\, from 12-6 p.m. on the 1400-1500 block of N. American St.\, a half-mile walk away. \nRSVP HERE

SUMMARY:Second Thursday at NextFab: Repair Fair & POST Preview
DESCRIPTION:Come explore the studios and see the artwork of members Maria Schneider\, Troy Musto\, and Bridget McMullin as part of the Philadelphia Open Studio Tours. \nWe will be welcoming the Philly Fixers Guild’s Repair Fair back to our spaces to help you fix and repair\, fix\, and assemble your tricky items. Why replace it when you can repair it? This urban volunteer repair outfit will help you fix your stuff\, free of charge\, and they’re ready for the challenge. Got tangled jewelry\, IKEA furniture that needs assembling\, or a vacuum cleaner that’s on the fritz? Sit down with one of their volunteers and they’ll help you hands-on with fixing it. While they do have some limits\, they encourage a read of their ground rules before bringing in your items. Reserve a spot here. \nGuidelines: \nTheir talented volunteer fixers love the challenge of repairing everyday things. However\, we have some limits and guidelines so things can run a bit more smoothly: \n\nGuests are required to stay with their item and participate in the repair (dropping an item off for them to work on defeats the purpose of the Repair Fair)\nIf you already know your item needs a particular replacement part\, order it early and bring it with you to the fair\nAs long as you can carry the item in\, we will do our best to get it repaired\nThere will\, of course\, be some things that cannot reasonably be fixed or might need a part ordered. In these cases\, a fixer will recommend the best course of action. Usually\, they will be able to supply you with info on part numbers and repair steps so you can complete the repair at home on your own!\n\nCan’t make it to the Repair Fair? They don’t want you to miss out on repairing your favorite possessions! For that reason\, their “ASK A FIXER” email link can be used with details of your broken item. A Fixer can then offer some advice and guidance on how to make the repairs on your own time. \nDisclaimer: The Philly Fixers Guild exists to help people repair their personal items and educate the community in general troubleshooting\, diagnosis\, and repair. The guild volunteers are not necessarily professionals or licensed in any way. Any repair work undertaken at a fair is done as a “Good Samaritan” effort and is for educational purposes only. No repair made at a Repair Fair carries any warranty\, promise of reliability\, or guarantee of safety. \nRolling tours of NextFab will be available\, and light drinks and refreshments will be served. \nWhat are Second Thursdays? \nFor 17 years\, the Crane Arts Building has hosted monthly art exhibitions\, performances\, and openings on the Second Thursday of every month. Similar to First Fridays in Old City\, but not wanting to compete\, Second Thursdays was created to highlight the creative community of the North Philadelphia neighborhood – and well it stuck! \nAmerican St. is becoming a booming street for artists\, makers\, and creatives of all types\, and we invite you to come out to be a part of this. Between the Crane Arts Building and the Clay Studio\, the NextFab building at 1800 North houses eight businesses that will also be opening their doors on the second Thursday of every month. At 1800 N. American St. the creative work ranges from restoring historic neon\, sourcing salvaged materials\, empowering artists\, building bicycles\, supporting artisan businesses\, a gorgeous floral market\, and a restaurant mixing up amazing cocktails. All are welcome to this open house-style event! \nWhile at the 1800 N. American St. building be sure to check out our neighbors:\n\nThe Resource Exchange\nSor Ynez\nKeystone Bicycle Co\nBeaty American Salvage\nCenter for Creative Works
