Abington Art Center

Permanent lighting installation by Mily-on commissioned for the Schwarzman-Toll Pavilion

Abington Art Center's Pavilion was built in 2000 and designed to engage with the natural setting and the Center's Sculpture Park. During 2016 renovations, the 2500 sq. ft. ceiling needed to be replaced and Mily-on was asked to create both an artistic piece and a practical solution for the structure and its use as a space for private and public events.

The resulting installation lifts the height of the ceiling and uses the structural steel of the roof to hold thousands of fiber optic strands. Like a loom, the fibers have been woven into a pattern that changes its effect from a delicate translucence during the day to the starry glow of the night sky.

February 1
Keswick Theatre

A darkened stage is set, awaiting a show that will mesmerize the audience. Cascading light affixes itself to the stage for a band referred to as The McCartney Years to begin their performance. Prepare yourself to feel an utterly amazing true concert experience in an intimate theatre setting. Without leaving your seat, except to move to the music, you are whisked away through time from the Beatlemania craze creatively woven into a familiar musical mosaic from songs that include Sgt Peppers, Abbey Road, and songs from McCartney's post Beatles career in Wings Over America and Rock Show.

The McCartney Years is an international touring production recreating McCartney's music in a 3-hour concert show. The McCartney Years represent the same passion, love and enthusiasm with the musical equivalent of what came out of the Abbey Road Studios to deliver a show that keeps the audience engaged throughout their musical journey together. From the groups inception, every performance is perfectly tweaked to a vocal and musical arrangement that is a mirror reflection of the original score from a library of over 250 songs. Without a doubt the audience, regardless of their age, will be able to take two steps forward and one step back while being completely enthralled in the show, feeling the same love for the music as the musicians on stage.

February 2
The Philadelphia Folksong Society

Quarter Horse is made up of longtime friends and brothers. Their sound is reminiscent of vocal harmony-driven bands such as The Band, CSN, and Fleet Foxes. Their first full-length album was released in December of 2016, produced by Grammy winner Andy Falco (Infamous Stringdusters), and is noted for its compelling songwriting, arrangements and instrumentation. Live shows are equally captivating, from acoustic in an intimate house concert setting to fully electric on a big stage.

February 3
Steel City Coffee House

We are Wild Minds, a group dedicated to nurturing artistic expre ssion in a safe, encouraging environment. 
We gather to write and workshop, cultivating our own skills while enjoying a new life and energy in each of our endeavors. As artists, we know how it feels to make ourselves uncomfortably vulnerable, and will therefore dedicate this space to existing together in that vulnerability, without judgment, competition, or rejection. 
We welcome poets, storytellers, songwriters, fiction writers, visual artists, and playwrights, keeping in mind the time and space limitations of our group. Instruments must be acoustic. Hateful or judgmental attitudes or content will not be tolerated.

Steel River Playhouse

Steel River Playhouse is excited to continue with its 10th Anniversary season by presenting the entertaining, musical comedy Nunsense, written by Dan Goggin and Directed by Drew Boardman. This show is a fantastically funny spoof about the misadventures of a group of nuns trying to manage a fundraiser. Sadly, the rest of the sisterhood died from botulism after eating vichyssoise prepared by Sister Julia Child of God. As a result, they put on a variety show to raise the desperately needed funds to bury their dearly departed. The performance takes place in the school gym where eighth-grade students are getting ready to perform Grease. An entertaining show with a wonderful cast will undoubtedly make for a fun evening.

February 1 - February 16
