Journey Arts’ beloved Table Sessions returns in April to Bartram’s Garden, curated by award-winning filmmaker Kristal Sotomayor
Prime yourself for an ebullient evening with the boisterous sounds of the kumbia-klezmer-punk collective Mariposas Galácticas, whose music is inspired by their ancestors’ shared roots in 'radical joy.' Then sit forward for a screening of Kristal’s short film _Expanding Sanctuary_ — the winner of the 2024 BlackStar Philadelphia Filmmaker Award — which flips the script on the current moment by telling the story of an immigrant mother’s triumphant fight for safety for Philly families. And, of course, leave filled not only with joy, but with a delicious dinner by the James Beard Award-winning Chef Cristina Martínez of South Philly Barbacoa.
