These stories are woven into every aspect of the visitor’s journey\, from the first time they enter the lobby to when they walk off the gangway of Olympia. \n\nQUESTIONS?: Feel free to reach out to programs@myphillypark.org.

SUMMARY:Healing in the Garden: Art\, Plants\, and Medicine at Bartram’s Garden
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Garden for a conversation about healing across time\, place\, and practice. Set inside America’s oldest surviving botanical garden\, this special event brings together artist Terrence Gore\, herbalist and urban forager Lady Danni Morinich\, and Dr. Burton of Burton Wellness & Injury Center for a thoughtful discussion on the many ways nature has shaped our understanding of medicine\, resilience\, and care.\nModerated by WHYY’s Maiken Scott\, the conversation will begin with a panel exploring art as a form of healing\, the wisdom and usefulness of plants growing all around us\, and the connection between traditional\, alternative\, and modern approaches to health. Terrence Gore will reflect on how Bartram’s Garden has influenced his artwork and his personal healing journey. Lady Danni will share insight into the medicinal and practical uses of plants found in our own backyards and public green spaces. Dr. Burton will bring a medical perspective to the conversation\, connecting the body\, wellness\, and integrative approaches to care.\nFollowing the panel\, guests will be invited to continue the conversation outdoors with a guided plant tour of Bartram’s Garden\, looking at the landscape through the lens of healing\, history\, and discovery. Light refreshments will be served. \nACCESSIBILITY – This event will take place in the Barn\, an indoor space that is accessible via wheelchair. It is about a 2-minute walk from the main Visitor Parking Loop\, ADA-accessible on a paved path at a slight incline. Gendered\, multi-stall public restrooms and all-gender single restrooms\, both ADA-accessible\, are about a two-minute walk away.\nWe’re happy to make accommodations for guests with mobility limitations.

SUMMARY:Botanical Sun Printing: Section A
DESCRIPTION:Cyanotype\, also known as sun prints\, is a camera-less photographic process that uses light\, chemistry\, and nature to create striking blue-and-white images. In this hands-on class\, explore how this historic technique invites close observation of plants while celebrating form\, texture\, and the fleeting beauty of the natural world. Begin with a brief introduction to the history of cyanotype\, then use the sun itself as a UV light source to create your own prints using plant materials harvested from Mt. Cuba’s gardens. As you arrange leaves\, stems\, and flowers\, you’ll learn how composition\, exposure\, and light interact to produce unique and expressive images—no photography experience required. \nYou will leave with finished cyanotype prints and a deeper appreciation for the intersection of art\, science\, and plants. This creative experience offers a new way to engage with Mt. Cuba’s landscape\, turning observation into lasting works of art. All supplies are provided. Please note the use of chemicals may stain\, so wear appropriate clothing. \nThis program takes place in-person at Mt. Cuba Center Saturday\, August 29\, 2026 (Rain Date: Saturday\, September 12). \n🥬 Gift or take home \n About the Instructor: \nShelly Silva holds a M.S. in Marketing Management from Wilmington University and a B.F.A. in Fine Art Photography from Corcoran College of Art + Design. When Shelly is not teaching workshops on botanical cyanotypes or alternative photographic processes\, she works as a digital communications specialist at the University of Delaware. She enjoys teaching people about the connections between nature\, art\, and the process of art making. \nREGISTER NOW: \nGeneral Public \nIndividual+ & Dual+ Members \nSupporter\, Advocate & Conservator Members \n

SUMMARY:Movies in Clark Park: The Matrix
DESCRIPTION:In 2026\, University City District will screen four films tied to the theme of freedom.\n\n\nJoin us Friday\, August 28th for a screening of The Matrix (1999). The film will be screened beginning at sundown (approximately 8:20 PM) in the Clark Park bowl during fair weather. Bring a blanket or chair and join the fun! \nIn The Matrix\, a computer hacker learns from mysterious rebels about the true nature of his reality and his role in the war against its controllers. Starring Keanu Reeves\, Carrie-Anne Moss\, Laurence Fishburne\, and Hugo Weaving. \nWe make every effort to announce postponements or cancellations via our social media channels and emails sent to our event lists prior to a scheduled screening. Sudden changes in forecasts or conditions do occasionally force us to postpone or cancel after a movie screening has already begun. Follow our Instagram account to stay up-to-date on news about Movies in Clark Park and the rest of our summer programming. \nUCD requires dry conditions in the Clark Park bowl to screen films without risking damage to the park.
