Come out for a night of community healing & celebration of West Philly’s culture and resilience! This event will honor lost loved ones, using art, music, and storytelling to cultivate healing in community with each other. You’ll hear from community members directly impacted by gun violence and some community leaders who are providing healing, violence interruption, and other resources for our people.
There will be a handful of speakers lined up, but then the mic will be passed to anyone who wants to share their own stories about the impact of gun violence and how they are healing. Poets and musical performers will come up after the storytelling. The event will also include a community altar, reiki practitioner, and a collaborative art piece folks can contribute to as well.
The event is hosted by Reclaim Philadelphia and will be held at Kingsessing Rec Center from 4-6:30pm.
Masks are required for all attendees (regardless of vaccination status). Masks and hand sanitizer will be available on site.
