Good morning, Philadelphia.

Philadelphia’s Laurel Hill East and West cemeteries are hosting the inaugural Death and Arts Festival where five artists explore aging, dying and grieving through dance, workshops, and panel talks— the four-day event began on May 29 and continues this weekend.

Philly Children’s Theatre has drawn attention for its sensory-friendly, interactive performances with a pay-what-you-can model and free child care (its no-shush environment lets children interact onstage).

The Theatre’s next free child care matinee is scheduled for June 14, and an original play will run at the Please Touch Museum from July 2 to July 27.

Hill-Freedman Records at a local high school released its seventh album, Heart & Soul, with support from John Legend & Jordan Mailata and is now working on its eighth album.

The project is part of a required music technology class where ninth and tenth graders create original songs.

The Lower Merion School District said that on April 10 (nearly two months ago) a BoardDocs glitch released highly sensitive documents including legal memos and personal records; officials fixed the issue after being told by someone in a legal case.

The district has informed Diligent Corporation (the BoardDocs developer) and warned it will hold them responsible if any harm is confirmed.

Urban chicken coop owners in Philadelphia hope City Council will soon introduce a bill to overturn the 21-year ban on backyard hens and legalize urban chicken keeping.

Residents like Maria Ayala have built coops and adjusted practices to comply with city codes as they push for a new law that would mark the third effort in six years.

Researchers said the Asian Longhorned tick, which can lay up to 1000 eggs without mating, is now the second-most common tick in Pennsylvania after spreading quickly since it was first spotted in 2017.

A study in Philadelphia and nearby areas did not find any of five germs tested, but experts warn the tick could give diseases like Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Babesiosis — so people should check for ticks after being outside.

On Wednesday, the Philadelphia Union completed a comeback against Toronto FC by winning 2-1 with late goals from Nathan Harriel and Kai Wagner, which returned them to first in the Supporters’ Shield while keeping their ten-game unbeaten run intact.

Other matches saw the Vancouver Whitecaps draw 0-0 with Minnesota United — Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez each scored twice for Inter Miami in a 4-2 win, and Columbus Crew tied 2-2 with Nashville SC.
