First Person Arts was recently awarded a Philadelphia City Paper Choice Award for the ”Festival Most Likely to Trump Fringe in the Coming Years”.  We love the Fringe and feel sure there is room for all of us in Philadelphia’s vibrant arts community – but we love to be loved, too.  Thanks City Paper!
