Be Sure to Get Your Ticket for PAFA’s GROSSED OUT – March 31st

Tickets are on sale now for the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art‘s After Dark Event featuring The Hacktory and Hive76. The event is an opening celebration for the show Anatomy/Academy, which explores “how Philadelphia’s dynamic art and science communities… fostered knowledge of the human body… transformed the attitudes of the public towards mental and physical health, and challenged conceptions about beauty.”

This After Dark Event will take place on March 31 from 6 – 9 pm with beverages and food provided. Tickets are free for PAFA members, $10 for non-members, available here.

Hive76 and The Hacktory have teamed up to bring you some awesome interactive installations that deal with anatomy, science, and instruments. The life-sized game of Operation built by Hive will be available to play with, as well as a troupe of real sword swallowers!
