Hello!

Won’t you take these lovely meteorological lemons we’ve been handed by life and make some lemonade with us?

SATURDAY!

It’s probably going to be rainy. 

Here’s the plan. We have space for the vendors and a bunch of the shows inside the wonderful Philadelphia Brewing Company.

LET’S TURN THE BREWERY INTO A FUNHOUSE!

A Kensington Queer Circus Funhouse!

If it’s raining we’ll be inside! If it’s not, we’ll be outside! Most likely it’ll be a little of both!

Come have fun with us – We’re going to try and stick to it as best we can! See you at the circus!

See you at the circus!
