Walk-ups Welcome!
Join us for a festive FREE First Friday concert with Philadelphia-based world music ensemble Jaffna!

With roots in the early-1990s, the group maintains its distinct style with original compositions and improvisations which stretch the boundaries of their respective cultures. Don’t miss being transported to other worlds!
