SUMMARY:Community Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Community\, as defined in the Oxford Dictionary\, is “a feeling of fellowship with others\, as \na result of sharing common attitudes and interests”. A sense of community can lead to \nempowerment and foster change in one’s life. My intention with this installation is to \nsuggest and comment on the urgency in our world these days of people coming \ntogether regardless of their physicality or ethnicity. I hope to inspire introspection and \nunity as we move forward during this challenging global time. \nThese storefront exhibitions are viewable 24/7 from the outside.

SUMMARY:Profs & Pints Philadelphia: The Neanderthals Among Us
DESCRIPTION:Profs and Pints Philadelphia presents: “The Neanderthals Among Us\,” on the genetic legacy of our ancestors’ pairings with Homo neanderthalensis and what such genes tell us about prehistoric life\, with Alexander Platt\, evolutionary geneticist and senior research scientist at University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine. \n“Extinction” is a slippery word. Neanderthals went extinct tens of thousands of years ago\, yet in a sense they’re more genetically present on Earth than ever given all of the markers of Neanderthal ancestry found mixed in the genes of the eight billion Homo sapiens around today. Moreover\, Neanderthals aren’t the only type of humans whose extinctions weren’t the end of the line. \nCome to Philadelphia’s Black Squirrel Club to learn about fascinating research on the relationship between Neanderthals and modern humans being done by the University of Pennsylvania’s Tishkoff Lab. That lab\, broadly devoted to studying genetic variation in global populations\, generated worldwide headlines in February with a study finding that most of our Neanderthal ancestry appears to come from the pairing of male Neanderthals with Homo sapiens females \nDr. Alexander Platt\, lead co-author of the recent study\, will talk about what we know about human-Neanderthal interactions and the major questions that have yet to be answered. \nYou’ll learn how fossil evidence helps us know where and when individuals from various early human groups lived\, while anatomical similarities between them let us speculate about their respective migration histories and their relationships. Genetic evidence\, from both modern humans and samples of ancient DNA\, offers us fresh insights into the connections between some of them. \nDr. Platt will talk about how modern humans and Neanderthals shared a common ancestor over 500\,000 years ago. They then spent hundreds of thousands of years evolving on separate continents\, only to encounter each other repeatedly over the last 250\,000 years\, during which their interactions and interbreeding left each carrying a complex set of genetic relics of the other. \nExactly how and why such pairings took place is one of the key mysteries that Dr. Platt and his colleagues are working to solve. To get a better sense of how sex differences shaped those interactions\, the researchers contrast genetic diversity in non-sex chromosomes with genetic diversity in the X chromosome\, more reflective of the history of women than men. \nYou’ll emerge from the talk with a much better understanding of how breakthroughs in genetics are contributing to our understanding of human evolution\, as well as a recognition that our own genetic makeup tells us about our roots in prehistory. (Advance tickets: $13.50 plus processing fees. Doors: $17\, or $15 with a student ID. Guests are welcome to arrive any time after 5:30. Talk starts at 6:30.) \nImage: A reconstruction of a Neanderthal man on display at the Neanderthal Museum in Mettman\, Germany (Neanderthal Museum / Wikimedia Commons).

SUMMARY:Bodies and Souls
DESCRIPTION:“My concern is with humanity. I want to confront the viewer with life and with what we are doing to each other. I hope to awaken in the viewer a sense of compassion . . . without compassion there is nothing.”\n—Luis Cruz Azaceta \nBodies and Souls examines the liberatory power of figurative art. Though often treated as conservative in the second half of the 20th century\, artists used representational and realist methods to assert presence for those omitted from dominant narratives or harmfully depicted by those outside their communities. Realism and representation remain powerful means to show embodied human experience\, encompassing gender\, sexuality\, interpersonal relationships\, psychological states\, and connections to home. \nThese methods can help us imagine the world we want to live in. Representational art has been critical for artists who want to make themselves and their communities visible on their own terms. It provides the agency to see and be seen\, to show relationships\, pleasure\, and autonomy. Representing ourselves is a powerful means of celebrating our full humanity. \nThis is the throughline of an eclectic collection formed by Philadelphians Robert and Frances Coulborn Kohler. Bodies and Souls celebrates their devotion to artists and immense generosity towards PAFA. Featuring over 120 works given and promised to the museum\, the exhibition will examine prominent themes in the collection\, integrating artists who are often seen independently or as part of regional communities. \nBodies and Souls is presented concurrently with an exhibition of the same title featuring the Kohlers’ personal collection at Woodmere\, Charles Knox Smith Hall\, 9201 Germantown Ave. Bodies & Souls – Woodmere. \nFeatured Artwork: Rafael Ferrer (born 1933) El Bolero\, 1983–84. Oil on canvas; 60 × 72 in. © Rafael Ferrer\, courtesy of the artist \nThe exhibition will include works by Robert Arneson\, Luis Cruz Azaceta\, Joan Brown\, Roy DeForest\, Rafael Ferrer\, Viola Frey\, Gregory Gillespie\, Juan Gonzalez\, Red Grooms\, Anne Minich\, Gladys Nilsson\, Ed Paschke\, Christina Ramberg\, Winfred Rembert\, Tabitha Vevers\, John Wilde\, Didier William\, Karl Wirsum\, and many others.

SUMMARY:Kati Gegenheimer: We've Only Just Begun
DESCRIPTION:Rooted in painting but extending into architecture and social space\, the exhibition positions love not as a private or sentimental subject\, but as a serious aesthetic\, political\, and communal structure. \nTo reinaugurate the newly renovated Morris Gallery\, PAFA presents Kati Gegenheimer: We’ve Only Just Begun\, an immersive monographic exhibition exploring love–familial\, romantic\, or brotherly–at this moment of profound social division. Anchored by a symbol-laden painted musical score of the titular line from the Carpenters’ 1970 song\, the exhibition presents works surveying how love is a necessary choice to be cultivated\, measured\, sustained\, or dismissed\, over time. \nRooted in painting but extending into architecture and social space\, the exhibition positions love not as a private or sentimental subject\, but as a serious aesthetic\, political\, and communal structure. Gegenheimer’s markmaking\, symbolism\, and vibrant use of color reclaim emblems of care and tenderness (hearts\, love notes\, hinges\, calendars\, keyholes\, to-do lists)\, and ponder how love is practiced over time rather than experienced in a singular instance. In an era driven by speed\, extraction\, and instant gratification\, the exhibition insists on return and continuity. \nGegenheimer’s paintings are devoted expressions of love\, luck\, and time\, drawing inspiration from art history\, architecture\, popular culture\, and craft. Her works embrace the decorative and diaristic\, each an altar to a fleeting moment. Reliant on color\, tempo\, and composition\, each of her paintings is a sign\, symbol\, and record all at once.

SUMMARY:FRED WILSON: THE MASTER PLAN or In Between the Big Bang and Modern Art Is the Restroom
DESCRIPTION:THE MASTER PLAN or In Between the Big Bang and Modern Art Is the Restroom is a suite of twenty-two photogravures commissioned in 2004 by the Brodsky Center at PAFA and completed in 2009. They are on view for the first time at PAFA in the Works on Paper Gallery of the Historic Landmark Building\, for one year\, in conjunction with the exhibition A Nation of Artists. \nAs an artist living and working in New York City\, I had to support myself one way or another. Working simultaneously in the educational department of the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the American Museum of Natural History\, and the American Crafts Museum made me wonder about how the environment in which cultural production is placed affects the way the viewer feels about the artwork and the artist who made these things. \n—Fred Wilson \nThe prints reproduce floor outlines from visitor orientation maps of eighteen major art\, cultural\, and natural history museums in North America and Europe. The succession of diagrammatic images\, precisely etched in off-white and black inks\, encourage viewers to revisit memories of time spent in museums and recapture the sense of adventure sparked by picking up a map. \nAs one of the most influential American artists of this century\, Fred Wilson has set in motion a profound transformation prompting museums to reconsider how they engage viewers’ learning experiences through art and artifacts. Two hundred and fifty years after Charles Willson Peale (1741–1827) established the American museum at the nation’s birth as the destination for educational advancement—commemorated in his painting The Artist in His Museum (1822)\, on view in the rotunda—Wilson examines the consequential role museums have played since. \nWilson’s conceptual inquiry challenges museums as neutral repositories of knowledge. His groundbreaking 1992 installation at the Maryland Historical Society\, Mining the Museum\, exhumed omitted histories of colonized and enslaved people and shifted attention to the authority embedded in institutional architecture\, furniture\, labels\, and registration systems through his creative retooling of the display apparatus. His subsequent work in glass\, sculpture\, painting\, drawing\, and print addresses the cross-continental history central to the Black experience\, including themes of race\, diaspora\, liberation\, and mourning.

SUMMARY:Garden Building Volunteer Day
DESCRIPTION:Raised beds and raised awareness! Volunteer to build the new learning and market garden at the new county park in Southeast DelCo.\n\n\n \nVolunteer to build DelCo’s newest garden.\n \nJoin us for a hands-on volunteer day as we build a new garden at the county park in support of our two emerging programs\, Grow and Walk Delco and Gardeners Without Borders. Together\, we will construct raised garden beds that will serve as both an educational learning garden for community members and a youth-supported market garden producing fresh\, locally grown food for the farmers market. \n \nVolunteers will help assemble garden beds and prepare them for planting by filling them with soil and organic amendments—laying the groundwork for a thriving garden ecosystem that will nourish both people and place. This garden is an important step in increasing access to locally grown food in Southeast Delaware County\, strengthening regional food systems\, and reconnecting communities with the sources of what they eat. \n\n\n\nAll ages are invited to build the new garden beds!\n \nThis volunteer day will be hosted in collaboration with youth participating in the Gardeners Without Borders program\, offering an opportunity for intergenerational learning and shared stewardship. Together\, we are planting more than seeds—we are cultivating connection\, care for the land\, and pathways to long-term community wellness. \n\n\n\nBeyond food production\, the creation of an organic garden contributes to the health of our shared watershed. Healthy soil supports water absorption\, reduces runoff\, and helps restore ecological balance in our local environment. Just as importantly\, time spent outdoors—touching soil\, breathing fresh air\, and working alongside neighbors—has meaningful benefits for physical health\, mental wellbeing\, and a sense of belonging. \n \nThrough this volunteer project\, we will all act as environmental and community stewards\, tending to the soil that nourishes the natural world and our place in it. \n\n\nRefreshments provided.  \n \nBYOB…water bottle that is!\nIn being good stewards of our planet\, we will not be providing individual plastic water bottles\, although water will be available. \nIf you don’t have water bottles\, we will have Black Girls With Green Thumbs water bottles available for sale.

SUMMARY:Safe Streets Statewide Advocacy Call
DESCRIPTION:About the Event: \n\n\nJoin Bicycle Coalition Policy Director Julio Rodriguez on April 30th for a virtual call about Parking Protected Bike Lanes (PPB)\, Jay Alert Pilot\, Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA)\, and our upcoming advocacy day in Harrisburg\, PA\, June 9\, 2026. A link to the Zoom Meeting will be provided with your registration email. \nThere are only 15 Parking Protected Bike Lanes in Philadelphia as a result of a pilot BCGP advocated for with OTIS and PennDOT in 2017. Passing the PPB would give municipalities in Pennsylvania the ability to install PPB\, which would result in more Parking Protected Bike Lanes. \nThe Jay Alert Pilot would create a notification system in Philadelphia where autobody shops would receive details of vehicles involved in a hit and run. In 2026\, 29 people have lost their lives to traffic violence\, four of which were hit and runs. \nSpeed kills: One of Ten People survive if they are hit at 40mph\, whereas nine of ten people survive if they’re hit at 20mph. The Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) program would offer an alternative for drivers facing license suspension for excessive driving by installing a device limiting speed on their vehicle in lieu of driver suspension. Here is a video of how this policy is working in Virgina.
