  • 1.  In Philly and looking for something to do Wednesday night?

    Posted 18 hours ago

    Hi folks! If you are in Philly for the conference and looking for something to do Wednesday evening, several Old City institutions are participating in an evening "Museum Crawl" and will be staying open until 7PM. More details about admission and programming at participating sites can be found at the Philadelphia Historic Neighborhood Consortium website.

    Participating organizations are: African American Museum in Philadelphia, American Philosophical Society, Christ Church Preservation Trust, Elfreth's Alley Association, Museum for Art in Wood, National Liberty Museum, Powel and Physick House, and Science History Institute

    After the crawl hours, (weather cooperating) head over to Independence Beer Garden for some networking hosted by Alli Schell and Elin Filbey from 7–9 PM for a casual museum worker mingle and post-crawl hangout. There will be some light snacks provided and drinks available for purchase.

    Looking forward to connecting this week!

    Hi Erin! 

    I would love to join tonight. I will be arriving in Philly around 6 pm - is there a way I can stay in contact to know where to meet up, since I'll be late?

    Thanks!

    Hi Gabrielle! The "crawl" is still on until 7 but sadly the networking event after has been postponed to Friday due to the forecasted storms all night.
