Friday | Jan 25 | Nichole Canuso and Friends

Nichole Canuso invites you to a tender and irreverent funeral for the things we've lost and those we hope to lose soon.

Saturday | Jan 26 | Cynthia Hopkins and Friends

Cynthia Hopkins presents a fabulously resistant, wildly resilient, truly unruly evening of solace for a society in crisis. An installment of The Thrashers, Hopkins' ongoing experiment with various forms of audience interaction, Saturday's Wintry Mix features Philadelphia artists who are boldly experimenting with social justice and audience engagement.
