Organizing DNA: How Neighborhood‑Level Power Drives Today’s Movements

8th Annual Nowak Lecture: Organizing DNA: How Neighborhood‑Level Power Drives Today’s Movements Jeremy Nowak began his career as a community organizer, known for his ability to build power at the neighborhood and block level to achieve larger-scale change. His work was rooted in deep listening, relationship‑building, and the belief that ordinary people could transform their communities when given the tools to act. The practices he championed continue to shape organizers and campaigns today. A recent New Yorker article explored the effectiveness of creating broad-based coalitions of independent, and often pluralistic units to drive change. Hyper local organizing allows for numerous leaders to emerge, build networks, and train others — an approach that is both energizing and accessible. Today’s immigrant justice and community protection efforts draw on the same organizing DNA that Jeremy helped cultivate: local leadership, community ownership, and collective action rooted in trust.

The Savoy Company presents Gilbert & Sullivan's The Gondoliers!

Come dance the cachucha and join The Savoy Company in celebrating our 125th anniversary year with Gilbert & Sullivan’s uplifting operetta, The Gondoliers! Set in Venice and the fictional kingdom of Barataria, the plot centers on two gondoliers, Marco and Giuseppe, who discover that one of them is the rightful king but cannot determine which. They agree to rule jointly until the true monarch can be identified, allowing Gilbert to satirize monarchy, aristocracy, and British political institutions. The show is especially noted for its unusually warm tone and emphasis on equality, reflecting contemporary late-Victorian debates about class and governance. Through its witty dialogue, lively ensemble numbers, and playful mockery of aristocracy and political systems, the operetta celebrates equality while poking fun at rigid class distinctions and the pretensions of monarchy. Premiered in 1889, The Gondoliers is the twelfth collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The show ran for 5… Category: Theater / Concerts.

The Black Clown

Creator and opera revolutionary Davóne Tines brings Langston Hughes’ poem “The Black Clown” to musical life in a vaudevillian rendering of this masterpiece. Fusing gospel, opera, jazz, and spirituals into a searing night of theatrical brilliance, The Black Clown embodies the evolving, divided soul of Black America and animates a Black man’s resilience against a legacy of oppression. The Black Clown has been hailed as “pure poetry” by The Boston Globe, and The New York Times lauds “this rich, seamless production melds the past and present of African-American history into an electrifyingly ambivalent whole.” Tines makes his Opera Philadelphia debut alongside an ensemble of 12 performers in this genre-bending, visually arresting piece, juxtaposing dazzling cathartic performances with Hughes’ enduring work.

Chester County Studio Tour-Studio 36

Come out and meet the artists of studio 36. Saturday May 16th 10-6PM and Sunday May 17th 11-5PM From studio host Stacy: I create fine art photography that captures the deep emotional connection between horses and humans. With a background in both photography and dressage, I use light, shadow, and composition to reveal the beauty, strength, and spirit of the equine form. While horses are at the heart of my work, I also explore still life, florals, and nature through a fine art lens—always seeking to create imagery that feels both timeless and intimate. From guest artist Ivy: I began my art career eighteen years ago in commercial art, but my focus shifted in recent years to create sparkly mosaics and custom paintings. Beginning my mosaics with a simple acrylic or gouache painting provides me with a foundation. Working with mosaics gives me the chance to take broken pieces of glass and make them into a new creation. Since mosaics require a sturdy surface, I create them on canvas panels or cradled wood panels.… Category: Art / Photography / Crafts. Cost: Free.

Creator and opera revolutionary Davóne Tines brings Langston Hughes’ poem “The Black Clown” to musical life in a vaudevillian rendering of this masterpiece. Fusing gospel, opera, jazz, and spirituals into a searing night of theatrical brilliance, The Black Clown embodies the evolving, divided soul of Black America and animates a Black man’s resilience against a legacy of oppression.

The Savoy Company presents Gilbert & Sullivan's The Gondoliers!

Come dance the cachucha and join The Savoy Company in celebrating our 125th anniversary year with Gilbert & Sullivan’s uplifting operetta, The Gondoliers! Set in Venice and the fictional kingdom of Barataria, the plot centers on two gondoliers, Marco and Giuseppe, who discover that one of them is the rightful king but cannot determine which. They agree to rule jointly until the true monarch can be identified, allowing Gilbert to satirize monarchy, aristocracy, and British political institutions. The show is especially noted for its unusually warm tone and emphasis on equality, reflecting contemporary late-Victorian debates about class and governance. Through its witty dialogue, lively ensemble numbers, and playful mockery of aristocracy and political systems, the operetta celebrates equality while poking fun at rigid class distinctions and the pretensions of monarchy. Premiered in 1889, The Gondoliers is the twelfth collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The show ran for 5… Category: Theater / Concerts.

Chester County Studio Tour-Studio 36

Come out and meet the artists of studio 36. Saturday May 16th 10-6PM and Sunday May 17th 11-5PM From studio host Stacy: I create fine art photography that captures the deep emotional connection between horses and humans. With a background in both photography and dressage, I use light, shadow, and composition to reveal the beauty, strength, and spirit of the equine form. While horses are at the heart of my work, I also explore still life, florals, and nature through a fine art lens—always seeking to create imagery that feels both timeless and intimate. From guest artist Ivy: I began my art career eighteen years ago in commercial art, but my focus shifted in recent years to create sparkly mosaics and custom paintings. Beginning my mosaics with a simple acrylic or gouache painting provides me with a foundation. Working with mosaics gives me the chance to take broken pieces of glass and make them into a new creation. Since mosaics require a sturdy surface, I create them on canvas panels or cradled wood panels.… Category: Art / Photography / Crafts. Cost: Free.
