Come out and support a revolving list of small businesses from the Philly area and beyond at the Philadelphia Marketplace 2025! Makers and crafters from the tri-state area will bring their handmade artwork, home goods, plants and more to the outdoor market every weekend. Along with the joyful chatter of the fountains and skating brought by the CCD, this fun shopping experience brings together vendors of all categories and product types.

Join the summer festivities every Friday and Saturday, when this group of revolving vendors will set up their shops at sunny Dilworth Park. Don’t miss these pop up shops from May 2 through June 28, 2025 and from September 5 through October 4, 2025 from 12pm – 6pm. Find something for everyone in the family or friend group from the ever-changing list of merchants every week. Fan-favorite vendors like Lily Lough Jewelry, Fairy Greens, LuvonFire Candle Co., Harleysville Beekeeper and Skyseed Jewelry and more will be bringing their unique products to Dilworth Park again and again throughout the summer, but be sure to catch them before that summer heat hits! This pop-up market is brought to you by the organizers of Christmas Village in Philadelphia in cooperation with the Center City District.

Stroll the vendors’ individual shops and take a spin on the Rothman Orthopaedics Roller Rink. These businesses will set up their tent-shops alongside the many wonderful activations and events set up by the Center City District. You can learn more about their events and programming to plan accordingly at centercityphila.org

The Philadelphia Marketplace is a perfect weekend activity in the heart of the city for groups and individuals of all ages. Get your shopping on and let the summer festivities begin!

The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education presents TERRA: Bodies and Territories, an immersive performance staged outdoors on forested land. This innovative theatrical work is the creation of Silvana Cardell, an acclaimed choreographer whose work contends with social struggles. TERRA: Bodies and Territories confronts the profound shared vulnerabilities between women’s bodies and the natural environment. In this highly experimental work, a multi-generational ensemble of women and femme dancers enact a sequence of symbolic narratives.

Composer Devin Arne amplifies the drama of the forest with a sound score that blends field recordings and musical instrumentation. Sculptural set pieces by visual artist Sarah Kavage and costumes by Vasi Zivanic visually complement the natural environment, the dancers’ movements, and Cardell’s conceptual themes.

TERRA will be performed outdoors on June 13, 20, 21, 22, 28 and 29.
