3) CONSIDERING MATTHEW SHEPARD - SPRING 2025 CONCERT
Friday, May 30, 2025, 8:00pm
Venue: Church of the Holy Trinity
Presented by Philadelphia Voices of Pride
Composed by Craig Hella Johnson
Daniel Schwartz, Artistic Director
In this Grammy-nominated, three-part oratorio, composer Craig Hella Johnson weaves a complex, evocative, and compassionate musical response to the murder of Matthew Shepard.
On October 6, 1998, University of Wyoming student, Matthew Shepard, was kidnapped, beaten, and left to die. In the wake of this horrific tragedy, the Matthew Shepard Foundation was founded by Matthew's parents to catalyze conversation and legislative action to protect LGBTQIA+ individuals and communities from experiencing this same violence. It is a grim reality that Matthew Shepard was not the last LGBQTIA+ person we have lost to this hate.
Philadelphia Voices of Pride Choir is proud to present this moving and important show that remembers Matthew's bright, funny, loving personality and reflects on our call to community and action. Now more than ever, we are standing together, singing with pride, and remembering that even in the darkest moments, love is stronger than fear.

Her debut EP Queen Degenerate doesn’t just flirt with rebellion – it makes out with it in the alley behind the club. This is pop for the misfits, the glam girls, the gays, the theys, and anyone ready to shake the system. Come for the music. Stay for the message. Come loud, come proud, come queer.

30) NEW PERFORMANCE WORK/ EXHIBIT
Presented June 6–8, 2025 alongside the exhibition, Soft/Cover
The Fabric Workshop and Museum, 1214 Arch Street
The Fabric Workshop and Museum (FWM) is pleased to announce Noise See and In Two, two new performance works by Chicago-based visual artist and choreographer Brendan Fernandes (b. 1979, Kenya). Coinciding with the exhibition, Soft/Cover, the series of performances takes place Friday, June 6 through Sunday, June 8 in simultaneous presentations across FWM’s second and eighth floor galleries.
Fernandes, who identifies as multinational and queer, has written these choreographic scores in exploration of the visibility and invisibility of queer bodies. Developed during the artist’s FWM residency, the new works feature dancers engaged in acts of hide and seek and of bodily transformation through interaction with a set of curtains, soft sculptures, and costumes created with the FWM Studio team as part of the artist’s residency.
Noise See
Second Floor Gallery
In Noise See, Fernandes debuts a new live performance commissioned by The Fabric Workshop and Museum that investigates themes of visibility, protest, the legacy of empire, and embodied resistance. Central to the work are vibrant quilted tapestries crafted as costumes, made in collaboration with the FWM Studio. These textiles of vivid red and blue plaid recall dress that is commonly associated with contemporary Maasai culture in Kenya yet rooted in British colonial influence. Performed as a duet, two dancers engage in a choreographic dialogue—merging and separating, concealing and revealing—through their bodily interaction with one another and their own biomorphic form as they inhabit their costume. The performers activate the double-sided tapestries throughout the space, evoking their transformation into blankets, shields, protest banners, cloaks, second skins, and sculptural forms. These dynamic textiles become agents of action, shaping and being shaped by the dancers' movements.
Noise See reclaims a colonial textile legacy and transforms it into a site of protest, protection, and presence. Here, Fernandes insists that silence is not absence but a resonant and radical form of resistance.
In Two
Eighth Floor Gallery
Commissioned by the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in 2024, Fernandes worked in collaboration with FWM’s Studio team to create an installation of curtains and soft sculptures to accompany an exhibition of the work of the artist Scott Burton (1939–1989) on view at the Pulitzer from September 6, 2024–February 2, 2025. In a series of duets titled In Two, Fernandes has written dance scores that take Burton’s furniture sculptures as a point of departure to explore the duality of display and concealment in gay cruising culture—ideas that Burton had pursued throughout his career. Fernandes integrates specific gestures—“flip the wrist,” “clasp arm to the breast”—directly from Burton’s choreographic notes.
Taking inspiration from Window Curtains, a work in FWM’s collection that Burton created during his own FWM residency in 1978, Fernandes worked with the FWM Studio to create a new set of curtains to be activated by his choreographed performances. Screenprinted on cotton muslin, the curtains feature flesh, steel gray, and blush-colored fingerprints left on a phone screen. For the artist, these smudges are suggestive of texting or swiping left or right in dating apps—a digital form of cruising. Soft Touch I and Soft Touch II, a pair of soft sculptures designed by Fernandes to resemble polished stone, complement and contrast with Burton’s hard materials. Using images of actual Burton benches, the FWM Studio team created the surface of these stuffed artworks through a digital printing process on cotton canvas. In performances of In Two—first presented at the Pulitzer in 2024 and now making its East Coast debut at FWM—dancers use the curtains and soft sculptures as props as they oscillate between concealing themselves and seeking one another.

Stop by their Fishtown taproom on June 7th for a day full of Pride Cheer including a block party featuring LGBTQIA+ makers from 12-7pm and a Pride Rave later that evening from 8 to midnight. The Philadelphia based brewery is also re-releasing their charity brew exclusively at their taproom. This strawberry blonde ale dubbed “#LoveisLove'' is set to be re-released this Pride Month and helps raise funds for The Trevor Project, a national LGBTQIA+ community program.
At the heart of their Pride festivities is #LoveisLove, a strawberry blonde ale that benefits the Trevor Project with every pint. The 6.0% ABV beer begins with a simple malt base of pale malts and wheat before being delicately hopped with Warrior Hops. Then the Philadelphia-based brewers hit it with just the right amount of natural strawberry flavor to produce a crisp, clean, and easy-drinking beer that’s perfect for the warm, summer weather. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of #LoveisLove will be donated to The Trevor Project, a national, charitable organization that provides resources to at-risk LGBTQIA+ youth. This year the beer will be available exclusively at their Philadelphia taproom.
The beer will be released as a focal point of their upcoming Pride Block Party on Saturday, June 7th from 12-7pm outside their taproom located on the 1700 Block of North Front Street in Fishtown. The event boasts tons of happenings for attendees on top of the beer release including Pride anthems spun by their house DJ. The event will feature a line-up of Philly’s best LGBTQIA+ creators offering artwork, vintage goods, and other handmade items. Of course, Evil Genius will be offering fresh pints from their outdoor beer tent and a food truck will be in attendance to satisfy your hunger. The event is no charge as well as family and pet friendly so be sure to bring the whole crew out for the day.
After the block party Evil Genius will be hosting a 21+ Pride Rave inside their taproom. The Rave will take place from 9 to midnight. Their taproom will be decked out in Pride Decor, black lights, and more to fit the vibe.
