Enjoy Our Annual Dickens Celebration

What does West Philly have in common Victorian Era England? Probably a couple of things, but our favorite answer at Friends of Clark Park is Charles Dickens. Our park houses one of the few known sculptures of Dickens and each year we like to celebrate his birthday in style.

This year marks birthday number 208 and we will be celebrating on Sunday, February 9th at 2PM. The celebration will take place in Griffith Hall (601 S 43rd St) on the Campus of the University of the Sciences. Festivities will include readings and refreshment as well as music from Classical Revolution Philly. We will also once again be joined by the Kingsessing Morris Men who always deliver fun and energetic entertainment.

All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you there!
