Community Engagement

Our mission is to create a space of learning and exploration where art is accessible to everyone in Philadelphia, and beyond. To achieve this, we partner with city organizations, schools, and cultural organizations to build an environment of collaboration and belonging where as many communities as possible can enjoy the benefits of art.

Current Initiatives

The museum works closely with our community partners to provide enriching programs and educational experiences to neighborhoods throughout our city. By meeting people where they already are, we’re able to connect with the broader cultural ecosystem of our city, learning and creating experiences together.

DJ in Residence

The DJ in Residence at the Philadelphia Art Museum is an exciting new position. To create a fulsome residency that is embedded into the museum's culture, the DJ has a dedicated working space, the opportunity to bring in guest DJs, and the invitation to bring the museum to life by spinning on the 1st, 3rd and 4th Fridays of every month.
