Hidden City Philadelphia – Exploring David Lynch’s “Eraserhood” – October 13, 2018 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM

Bob Bruhin

When David Lynch moved to Philadelphia in the late 1960s to attend PAFA, he discovered a city that was both terrifying and inspiring. Explore the neighborhood just blocks away from PAFA that so electrified Lynch’s imagination with two guides: Hidden City’s Peter Woodall and Lynch–and Eraserhood–aficionado, Bob Bruhin. During this one-and-a-half hour walking tour, we’ll delve into the area’s industrial history, as well as the sights and sounds that inspired Lynch’s movies, particularly Eraserhead.

When: October 13, 2018 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
Location: Meet at the southeast corner of 13th and Wood Sts.
