The Art Museum is Hosting “Art-ish” an Evening of Live Music, Emerging Artists, Food and Open Bar

Known for its world–renowned art collection, the Philadelphia Museum of Art has always been the center piece of the art world in the city. However, this month local artists, entertainers and distillers are taking over the hallowed halls of the art museum and creating an evening that will indulge all the senses.

On Saturday March 26th the event “Art-ish” will be taking place from 8pm-12 am. Guests will enjoy an evening that will celebrate local artists with live music, a multitude of interactive demonstrations (light installations, poetry, hand painted ceramics, live sculpturing, etc), exhibits, food & beverage from Constellation Culinary Group & more.

Guests can enjoy a night of partying and the chance to explore the museum’s newest exhibitions, and proceeds will support the museum and its efforts to attract young & diverse audiences.

Performances will include Beano French, Seraiah Nicole, backed by beloved local DJ’s, AMH and Caution. Live art demonstrations will also be on display throughout the evening, ranging from graphic design to photography and jewelry making

Of course you need to fuel up while dancing the night away. Food & beverage will be available courtesy of Constellation Culinary Group and local partners Cloud Cups and Porco’s Porchetteria & Small Oven Pastry Shop; Open bar, light bites, and a full dessert spread.

In addition whiskey lovers will be able to enjoy whiskey and rum tastings from Strivers’ Row Distillery, Philadelphia’s first Latin-owned distillery as well as learn about Black-owned wine labels during a special tasting with Zachary Harris of Ikavina Wine and Spirits.  Tickets are $75 for general admission or $55 for Young Friend of Philadelphia Museum of Art Members and can be purchased here.
