After a new coat of paint, primer and a brand new pedestal, the iconic #LOVEstatue, by Robert Indiana, is back to its original location. You’ll note that the colors are now red, green and purple as originally intended.

One of the nine painted busts that were commissioned by Comcast for the @civrightsvoices project for #MLKDay2018. These busts were painted by students and were inspired by the writings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The sculptures will be on display throughout Philly until Feb. 28th. #KeepMarching

Green fever is at an all time high in Philly right now! We got into the spirit of things on @teaspoonsandpetals #matcha crawl. Here we stopped by @rikumo, where we got a demonstration on how to prepare matcha. A special whisk and bowl were used to mixed the ground tea leaves with hot water. The whisking action helps to create a frothy texture! Turn the sound on to hear @teaspoonsandpetals explain the Japanese proverb, “Ichi-go ichi-e,” the term is often translated as "for this time only," "never again," or "one chance in a lifetime." The term reminds people to cherish any gathering that they may take part in. More about matcha, and some of the best places to try matcha around Philly, coming soon on citywidestories.com
