Philadelphia’s TAP (Travers Arts Project) will have a booth on the streets promoting their fall line up of events and generating interest in the first Annual Philadelphia GLBT Artists Fest to be held in Spring 2009.

The booth will feature gifts from Absolut Vodka whose green initiative perfectly aligns with TAP’s mission of carbon Zero productions. The booth will feature give aways’s and raffles including a pair of Tickets to The Wilma Theater’s latest production of Rock N Roll by Tony Nominated Playwright Tom Stoppard.

In addition to the give aways, TAP will be selling raffle tickets  for a chance to win premium parquet seats to The Cadillac Broadway Series shows, Legally Blonde and Ain’t misbehaving.

Festival Founder and TAP Project Coordinator T. Desiree Hines said, “We are looking to generate interest in the festival as well as attract local GLBT Artists who need a forum to present their work.  Thought the festival is in the early planning stages there has been great momentum from the community so far. I look forward to meeting more of the community while celebrating how great it is to be part of the GLBT community.”

The Philadelphia GLBT Artists fest will take place in Center City Philadelphia from May 28 – 31, 2009.
