About

The Perch is a two?story music and arts workshop beside the Emerald Wildflower Garden in East Kensington, hosting intimate concerts, workshops, rehearsals, and recordings with a restored 1888 Steinway grand piano. Created in 2022, it programs classical and new music and has been used by presenters like Bowerbird and appears in the Philadelphia Fringe Festival venue directory. Steps from the Frankford Avenue corridor, it draws a DIY neighborhood crowd for garden and community events.
