Gatherings En El Barrio
Paid opportunity for North Philly residents*
Do you live in North Philly? Here’s a special chance to eat delicious food, see MinorityLand for free, and make some money!
Power Street is hosting three community gatherings which include food and a free ticket to our next show. As we connect with neighbors over food and drinks at West Kensington Ministry, a Power Street facilitator will host a conversation about what stories are on the community's mind in connection with themes from MinorityLand such as preserving communities. Then we'll enjoy a free performance of MinorityLand at West Kensington Ministry. Your voice matters to us - so much that you'll receive a $25 gift card just for joining us! Each gathering is limited to 20 people!
What’s the catch? None...except we’d like to invite you back for one last dinner and conversation after the run of MinorityLand. There will be food, drinks, and another conversation about the show - and you’ll get a $50 gift card for joining us once again!
​
