SUMMARY:Al Gury: Painting and Purpose
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating the Legacy of Albert “Al” Gury (October 23rd\, 1951 – June 25th\, 2026)\nPAFA is honored to present Al Gury: Painting and Purpose\, an exhibition celebrating the legacy of the beloved painter\, educator\, author\, advocate\, and friend. \nFor more than 38 years\, Al shaped the life of PAFA with extraordinary dedication\, generosity\, and care. A PAFA alumnus and Cresson Traveling Scholarship recipient\, he returned to the Academy as a teacher and became one of its most enduring voices in painting\, drawing\, figure drawing\, anatomy\, art history\, and art education. \nAs Chair of Painting from 2000 to 2022\, Al helped guide generations of artists through the discipline\, rigor\, and poetry of the studio. He believed deeply in the power of art education\, not only as technical training\, but as a way of helping students discover who they were becoming. His influence extended far beyond the classroom through PAFA’s free After-School Studio Arts Program for Philadelphia-area high school students\, which he founded and directed\, opening the doors of art-making to young people across the city. PAFA’s own 2024 reflection on the program described Al as a Philadelphia-based artist\, educator\, and writer whose work explored harmony\, color\, composition\, and “visual poetry.” \nAl’s legacy also lives through his paintings\, his three books on painting and drawing\, his teaching at institutions across Philadelphia and beyond\, and his lifelong commitment to community\, advocacy\, and care. He gave quietly and generously\, encouraging students who needed support\, helping those struggling to afford supplies\, and believing in artists before they fully believed in themselves. \nThe exhibition includes a range of works that highlight is extensive painting career. It also showcases his pedagogical approach through the display of color studies\, figure sketches\, and teaching tools. A selection of student work honors Al’s incredible influence as a teacher\, who continually brought patience\, conviction\, humor\, discipline\, and an open heart to the classroom. \nFeatured: Al Gury\, “Valley View”\, Oil\, 60in x 40in\, 2021 \nThis is a Weekly Recurring Event\nRuns from Oct 23\, 2026 to Apr 26\, 2027 and happens every:\nMondays: 10:00am – 5:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)\nThursdays: 10:00am – 5:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)\nFridays: 10:00am – 8:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)\nSaturdays: 10:00am – 5:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)\nSundays: 10:00am – 5:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)

SUMMARY:Citizen Movie Screening-In Pursuit\, Episode 9\, Liberation
DESCRIPTION:Historian Sam Katz’s documentary traverses years of startling upheaval and profound struggle in America’s birthplace.\n\n\nPlease join The Philadelphia Citizen for a screening of In Pursuit Episode 9: Liberation (1968-1990) \nHappy Hour\, 5:30-6pm | Program\, 6-7:30pm \nSam Katz is a lifelong Philadelphian who has experienced a diverse and unique career in public and project finance\, venture capital\, civic affairs\, development\, politics and documentary filmmaking. \nKatz’s new docuseries\, In Pursuit\, is a new American history for our time\, told in ten hour-long episodes releasing throughout 2026. In Pursuit reviews the urgent questions posed by the story of the nation over four centuries. From America’s birthplace comes a centuries-long drama on the possibilities and limits of a self-governing democracy\, sharing Philadelphia’s role in the making of America. In Pursuit is produced by Sam Katz\, winner of the 2021 Library of Congress/Ken Burn Prize for Film\, directed by award-winning filmmaker Andrew Ferrett and written by author Nathaniel Popkin. In Pursuit is narrated by acclaimed actor Michael Boatman\, with an original score by internationally recognized composer Daniel Slatkin. \nABOUT IN PURSUIT-EPISODE NINE: Liberation 1968-1990 \nFrom the assassination of Martin Luther King\, Jr. to the bombing of the MOVE house\, Episode 9 Liberation traverses years of startling upheaval and profound struggle\, as older American cities seek a way out of economic obsolescence\, poverty\, and rising crime. What could America’s birthplace mean to the nation in the year of the Bicentennial? \nWith documentary testimony by those who experienced these conflicts first-hand\, In Pursuit moves into the late 20th century with a balanced look at how real urban residents navigated political and economic swings while working to shape the world for the future. At the heart of the story is the political rise of police commissioner Frank L. Rizzo\, an ally of President Richard M. Nixon who learns how to exploit media attention to consolidate his power\, becoming mayor in 1971. Until that attention—in the form of investigative journalism by\, among others\, Andrea Mitchell\, Gene Roberts\, Buzz Bissinger\, and J. Whyatt Mondesire\, all on-screen featured voices in the episode—exposes corruption\, police brutality\, and the mayor’s penchant for punishing perceived enemies. \nThe daily public struggle between journalists and the mayor comes to a head in the approach to 1976\, the 200th anniversary of the birth of American democracy\, as civil rights\, anti-war\, and gay rights groups demand justice in the streets\, activism that further enrages the mayor. One such group is the lesbian collective DykeTactics\, hounded by the FBI; another is the radical back-to-nature front MOVE\, whose confrontations with the mayor result in a blockade and then a gun battle that leaves a police officer dead and nine MOVE members in jail. \nOrganizing the Black electorate results in the election of W. Wilson Goode as mayor in 1983\, like Harold Washington of Chicago and Tom Bradley of Los Angeles\, and Coleman Young of Detroit\, the first African American to be elected to the position in the city’s 300-year history. All these men are children of the Great Migration. \nGoode fails to contain MOVE’s transformation of their new house into an armed bunker; he permits the police to use violent means to try to forcibly remove MOVE members\, including children. When that fails they drop an explosive device on the bunker and refuse to allow the fire department to put out the ensuing fire\, which rages the night of May 13\, 1985\, consuming three blocks\, killing 16\, including five children\, making 250 people homeless. No one is ever made liable for an act that comes to signify the tragic decline of a great American city. \n$5 entry.

SUMMARY:Walking the Schuylkill – John Brady Photography
DESCRIPTION:William Penn placed the city where it is because of the Schuylkill River\, guaranteeing the city and the river a prominent place in American history. Over time\, the Schuylkill has served the city and its industry\, first with a canal system and later with railroads and highways in the river’s flood plain. Factories and mills were built along its full length. Industry radically changed the river. Along with bringing farm products and coal to the city. The Schuylkill River provided drinking water. These purposes often collided; eventually drinking water won out. The environmental movement changed the river as radically as the industrial age had. These changes\, and contemporary uses\, leave imprints. “Walking the Schuylkill” intends to capture and highlight those marks\, illustrating the character of the modern Schuylkill River.

SUMMARY:2027 State Advocacy Virtual Organizing Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Pennsylvania’s trifecta is just the beginning! \nAfter nearly 10 years of petitions\, phone calls\, and trips to Harrisburg by hundreds of advocates\, we are ready to make parking-protected bike lanes (PPBL) a reality. Passing PPBL legislation is our first legislative priority for 2027. Building on that momentum\, we will also work with partners to advance a three-class e-bike legislation. We will secure sustainable\, dedicated transit funding alongside Transit Forward Philadelphia. In partnership with Families for Safe Streets Greater Philadelphia\, we will push to make red-light camera authorization permanent\, expand automated speed enforcement\, and advance Intelligent Speed Assistance. \nWe support proposals such as Jay Alert and will  continue evaluating opportunities to make streets safer across Pennsylvania. 2027 is our year to turn a decade of advocacy into action! \nPlease email Julio Rodriguez if you’re interested in taking action to support our legislative advocacy. We will host a zoom meeting next Wednesday\, November 11\, at 6pm to discuss ways you can sign up to get involved. REGISTER FOR ZOOM LINK

SUMMARY:Valley Talk - Wildlife in the City: Exploring Philadelphia’s Urban Nature Through Trail Cameras with Julie Ellis presented by Univest Financial
DESCRIPTION:In person at the Valley Green Inn or online on Zoom\nAs cities expand and urban populations grow\, understanding how wildlife adapts to urban environments is increasingly important. Philadelphia is home to a surprising diversity of wildlife\, but how do animals use the city’s green spaces\, and how might their activity be influenced by habitat\, development\, and urban heat?\nIn this talk\, Julie Ellis will introduce the Accessing Urban Nature Initiative (AUNI)\, a new Penn Vet project using a network of motion-activated trail cameras across Philadelphia to explore the city’s urban wildlife. In partnership with the Urban Wildlife Information Network (UWIN)\, AUNI is documenting which species live in the city\, when and where they are active\, and how wildlife activity relates to land cover and urban heat. Beyond the research\, AUNI brings together Penn students and Philadelphia community partners to spark curiosity about urban wildlife\, foster connections with nature\, and encourage local stewardship. Join Julie to discover what trail cameras are revealing about the wild neighbors sharing our city—and how understanding and appreciating urban nature can help create healthier\, more wildlife-friendly communities.\nJulie C. Ellis\, PhD\, is a wildlife ecologist whose career spans seabird research\, wildlife disease response\, and collaborative initiatives that connect science\, conservation\, and public engagement. For more than 20 years\, she has developed and led programs that advance wildlife health and conservation through partnerships across academic institutions\, government agencies\, and communities. Her work includes directing SEANET\, a citizen-science network monitoring seabird mortality along the Atlantic coast; founding the Northeast Wildlife Disease Cooperative to strengthen regional capacity for wildlife health response; and co-founding Penn Vet’s Wildlife Futures Program\, a major partnership with the Pennsylvania Game Commission focused on wildlife health and emerging diseases. Julie is currently Associate Director of One Health at Penn Vet\, where she connects human\, animal\, and environmental health through collaborative research and community engagement.\nRegister here to attend in-person at the Valley Green Inn.\nRegister here to attend online on Zoom.\nThank you to our presenting sponsor\, Univest Financial!
