Enjoy performances, poetry, and a film screening, plus see live demos by Philly artists.
Barnes on the Block celebrates diverse storytellers and artists who explore that which brings us together as part of our living American history. Find more information on performances with Wawa Welcome America here: https://bit.ly/35KaWKj
