Join us February 9, 1-3 PM for a special Family Arts Day honoring Black History Month! Create a family photo album with painting, drawing, text, and instant film! Inspired by a WWII-era artifact from Philadelphia Revealed: Unpacking the Attic, An Exhibition of the Atwater Kent Collection at Drexel University.

Discover the story behind this photo album in the "Kinkeeping" episode of The Philadelphia Revealed Podcast, produced by WHYY in partnership with Rowhome Productions. Hosted by Jamie J. Brunson of First Person Arts, each episode features a new storyteller highlighting an object from the exhibition and sharing their own story inspired by it. 

Enjoy a day of hands-on artmaking, storytelling, and creative activities inspired by history and community.

Bring the whole family and celebrate history through art!
