Time Travel Convention | Pt. 1 – Preparation

Yell Gallery 2111 East Susquehanna Avenue, Philadelphia, PA

The Time Travel Convention is an exhibition that explores time travel as a practical activity – something that does not necessarily require a machine, an advanced degree, or any other privileges. Using afrofuturism and the speculative as lenses, the exhibition will feature time travel devices and objects from creators who use tools such as memory, dreams, imagination, manipulation of language and perception, light, and music to craft their temporal devices.

Visionary Literature

Wooden Shoe Books & Records 704 South Street, Philadelphia, PA

We know the literary world is not immune to the racism and inequality all around us. And we know we can do better. This reading and panel discussion will explore how two small, independent presses in Philadelphia are exploring issues of race, gender, literature, and a better future.

STREET THEORY: A Social Criticism Open Mic Night

STREET THEORY: A Social Criticism Open Mic Night

The Cedar Works 4919 Pentridge Street, Philadelphia, PA

Metropolarity presents a night of community building and sharing. We seek social criticism from the community--performance art, blog rants, monologues, critical sci-fi, thesis excerpts, protest songs--whatever. As long as it explores and dissects the world we live in today. We want to find out what our community feels about social issues. We don't want theories handed down to us from the ivory tower.

We want your real life STREET THEORY.
