Melissa Hassey at The Hinge

All throughout the month of October, Melissa Hassey will have a touching and beautiful photo exhibit on display at The Hinge Cafe in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia.

The title of the exhibit is called “Embracing Strength” A mother’s breast cancer survival leads to the discovery of hope as told through the photographic eyes of her daughter. Also on display will be part of Melissa’s “Don’t Talk To Strangers” series.

If you don’t know where The Hinge Cafe is, but are familiar with Northern Liberties and Fishtown, it’s quite easy to find. Here is a map giving directions from 3rd and Spring Garden:

I haven’t had any meals at The Hinge Cafe yet, but I hear nothing but rave reviews. In fact, The Hinge Cafe recently won the 2007 Best New American Local Eatery from MyFoxPhilly.com

So, stop on by, but make sure to check out their web site first for their hours. Oh, and it’s a BYOB, so bring some bubbly if you’re thirsty for it. Also, if you can make it, October 22nd will be the official “opening” celebration of the exhibit.
