—————————————————————————————————

Liberty Bell Brass is an electrifying, lively, and joyous ensemble comprised of some of Philadelphia's best musical talents, dedicated to lifting spirits and inspiring a fulfilling experience that your guests will love! We play music that runs the gamut of genre and style, but our special brand of entertainment is a showcase of your favorite pop songs, from modern stars and classic artists, re-interpreted in our own funky horn-and-percussion format.

Sarah Butler is a Philadelphia-based artist and art educator dedicated to observing the environment and how we navigate through it. With degrees in environmental science and fine art, her work reflects on human-environment interactions, and how these interactions evolve as we continue to alter the planet. Sarah utilizes mixed media in her practice, finding ways to create movement, color, and texture through combining collage, painting, photography, and most recently papermaking.
