Over 350 of you turned out to beat back the wintry doldrums at RELOAD, the second installment of PAFA’s After Dark program. We blasted our winter blues away with good food, good company and great atmosphere. Hometown drag diva Martha Graham Cracker strutted her stuff in the historic Rotunda unlike any performer before her, combining a quick wit, talented band, and theatrical flair into Philadelphia’s most dazzling cabaret performance yet. Artist collective Space 1026 returned with another on-site art project, featuring a curated selection of local zines and a hands-on workshop where attendees could create a one-of-a-kind art magazine to take home. We even had artists come in and work on their copies of master paintings from the collection, creating a full night of seeing art, making art, and wait for it -- seeing art being made! As always, great music, stimulating conversation and delicious cocktails included.
