Opening Celebration for At Liberty
About this Event
At Liberty: Life in the City of Brotherly Love During the Early Republic is a fascinating exhibition exploring Philadelphia during the nation’s formative years through paintings, sculptures, and works on paper drawn from major regional and national collections. Featuring portraits of notable figures alongside scenes of everyday life, the exhibition offers a vivid glimpse into the people, places, and ideas that shaped the early American republic.
Guests will enjoy special remarks from the curator and other distinguished guests, themed refreshments inspired by the era, and a live performance by the Penn Shabbatones, the University of Pennsylvania’s premier Jewish a cappella group known for their dynamic arrangements and engaging performances. Celebrate the opening of this exciting exhibition with fellow art lovers, scholars, students, and members of the community.
