Thanks to everyone who joined us for our events over the last two weeks: your energy and your questions made our latest webinar and our Book Week publishing panel a big success! Look out for more events like this in future.
This week, we have more from the University of the Arts community, still reeling from the school's shockingly sudden and unexplained closure last week. Novelist and creative writing program founder Elise Juska, who taught at UArts for 24 years, takes us inside her final week.
We're also covering an exciting slate of theater openings, including notable world premieres at the Wilma, Power Street Theatre, and InterAct. If our critics make you want to get tickets, you have until June 23. Plus: a look at John Jarboe's Rose Garden installation at the Fabric Workshop and Museum, Suzan-Lori Parks at Quintessence, and a US premiere at Inis Nua.
As usual, our writers have been busy.
In other news, our friends at the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance are launching their Lunch and Learn Workshop Series, and we wanted to make sure you knew about it. The series kicks off on Thursday, June 13 with a pair of workshops about HR (including hiring, retention, and bridging different generations in the workplace), and continues on Tuesday, June 18 with a pair of sessions about marketing and PR for small organizations with small budgets. Both workshops will happen in Center City, and they include lunch.
Thanks for spending another week with us!
