Made possible by the generous grant of donor Marcia Robbins-Wilf, Ed.D., Drexel Dance enjoyed a wonderful First Friday in Philadelphia! A memorable celebration of dance, art, and community.

We began dinner at La Bugambilias, where conversation ranged from check-ins on our first few weeks of classes to reflections on Dominic Moore-Dunson’s Remember Balloons, presented by our very own Mandell Presents.

From there, we explored First Friday in Philadelphia, passing through galleries and stopping at the Sistah Soul Series at Cherry Street Pier.

It was a lovely Friday for Drexel Dance, filled with good food, thoughtful conversation, and opportunities to experience art together beyond the studio.
