This Monday, it’s time for fireworks and fun as we celebrate our Independence.

Gallery5 will be celebrating the Fourth of July on the rooftop of the Hofheimer Building in Scott’s Addition for their “The Big Bang” party.

There will be Mediterranean-style fare, a cash bar, live music by local Appalachian Dixieland band Dharma Bombs and our very own President John Reinhold will be playing a mix of funk, soul, oldies, danceable tunes and more!

In addition to music and food, local burlesque/entertainer Scarlet Starlet will be on hand baton twirling.

The evening will culminate with a fireworks show from The Diamond across from the Historic Hofheimer Building located at 2818 W. Broad St. Gallery5’s “The Big Bang” Fourth of July event will take place on Monday from 7 to 11 pm and a portion of the proceeds will go back to benefit Gallery5.

Tickets are $10 and can be purchased here.
