PAFA's Patron, Benefactor, and Peale Circle members are invited to join outgoing President and CEO, Dr. David R. Brigham for a holiday toast as he shares his favorite works in PAFA's permanent collection. David will highlight some gems from the collection of Joseph and Sarah Harrison. Joseph and Sarah Harrison were prominent Philadelphians whose Rittenhouse mansion stood until the early 1920's. After the death of Joseph in 1874, his wife Sarah donated eleven works to PAFA's permanent collection. Of these historic works, Penn's Treaty With The Indian's is currently on view. This event is for PAFA's upper level membership groups to thank them for their continued leadership support.
Kindly RSVP to Gillian Golson at ggolson@pafa.org or (215) 972-2037 should you wish to participate.
Please note that the Zoom link and information will be sent shortly before the event date.
