HISTORY The Cheese Ball is a biennial event -- this is the 4th one since 2012. The Ball is designed to bring cheese lovers together, honor mongers and makers, and offer the public a chance to partake in creating (and eating!) a giant cheese board. There are no vendors. Proceeds from ticket sales cover rental space and are donated to a local cheesemaking effort. Thanks for supporting this grassroots effort!

Korine is an electric pop duo from Philadelphia. Their debut LP "New Arrangements" calls to mind early Ministry, "Black Celebration" era Depeche Mode and 90s New Order, all while sounding completely contemporary. Korine uses haunting lyrical imagery and vintage synthesizers to create a world all of their own, one where you can't tell if it's 1984 or 2018
