For the first time, this year’s Black Women’s Arts Festival – the 14th annual Philadelphia-based event – will be a virtual festival.
The event, which once again will showcase a variety of multimedia arts and performances by African American and Black women, will take place this year on Saturday, September 19 and Sunday, September 20.
On both days, the show will begin at 1 pm and end at 7 pm.
Because of the pandemic, this year’s event will live-stream on The Rotunda’s YouTube channel.
People can watch the show at https://www.youtube.com/TheRotundaPhilly and at The Rotunda’s Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/TheRotundaPhilly).
The event’s founder, Cassendre Xavier, who herself is a Philly-based singer-songwriter will perform at the Festival, and said that this year’s event will feature, among others, visual artist Wanda Payne, singer-songwriter Narissa Bond, and performance artist O.
