West Philadelphia rapper Chill Moody will bring his Moody’s Klubbhouse performance series to Fairmount Park on Oct. 16 for a free night of live music, food and fireworks.
Fairmount Park Conservancy’s free Play for Parks celebration, scheduled for Friday, Oct. 16, has been postponed due to weather.
Organizers say they will reschedule the event. A new date has not been announced.
The celebration was set to take place at the John Welsh Memorial Fountain, across from the Please Touch Museum, with live music from West Philadelphia rapper Chill Moody, food and drinks, and a fireworks show.
The original program included Moody’s Klubbhouse, featuring a house band led by saxophonist Hiruy Tirfe and additional Philadelphia performers.
Play for Parks celebrates the completion of the Conservancy’s five-year Fair Play Campaign. According to the organization, more than 2,700 donors contributed to the effort, which raised and reinvested $115 million in Philadelphia parks and outdoor public programs.
The Conservancy also had planned to present Mayor Cherelle Parker with the John K. Binswanger Park Champion Award, recognizing her support for city parks and service on the Fair Play Campaign committee.
