Proceeds from FEASTIVAL will go to benefit Philadelphia Live Arts Festival and Philly Fringe, both of which exist to further the goals of the live arts community in the area. These entities work to commission and help present various live arts performances and performers throughout the city of Philadelphia. Philadelphia Live Arts and Philly Fringe also educate the audiences so that they will truly appreciate the live arts and help this art form to grow within the city and beyond. The proceeds from FEASTIVAL, which takes place in the middle of the 16-day Philadelphia Live Arts Festival, will be put to good use in various aspects within the live arts community in Philadelphia.
FEASTIVAL 2012 invites attendees to sample unique culinary creations from a wide array of Philadelphia restaurants and renowned chefs including Georges Perrier, Jose Garces, Marc Vetri and Michael Schulson.
