Hola!
It's been long overdue since I posted something here..and what better time to post! This past July 4th weekend was one for the record books! Myself and a few close friends attended the first annual Philadelphia Experiment Summer Festival.
I was first introduced to PEX when I first began spinning poi. I was desperately looking for like-minded folk to practice with and stumbled upon a meetup group known as Philadelphia Fire Arts. From there, I discovered the wonderful world of PEX! It's extremely difficult to put into words what exactly PEX is - here is their website, which may help clarify the enormity of what they represent. But anyhoo, the organizers hold annual fundraisers/events in order to raise money for their Burning Man camp in BRC each year. I am happy I was able to witness their transformation from one-night events to full-fledged festival mode. It took an incredible amount of effort to coordinate the festival, but everything came together beautifully! It was truly inspirational to see such love, dedication, vision and group effort put forth. There were workshops, speakers, performers, painters, dreamers, sculptors, thinkers, music, and so many more things I could list..but I won't, because the list would just go on and on, and on and on... Here are some photos a friend of mine took, and I will be posting mine soon. The weekend's festivites left me knowing, without a shadow of a doubt, that real love is still alive and well. :)
