DesignPhiladelphia: Historic Tour of the Sanctuary at Fleisher Art Memorial
Join us to learn more about our conservation efforts and renovation plans!
As part of this year’s DesignPhiladelphia Festival, we are welcoming guests to experience the stunning architectural details of our historic Sanctuary, located at 711 Catharine Street in Queen Village. Join us for a 30 minute walking tour led by Interim Executive Director, Rebecca O’Leary and former board member and resident historian Bill Brookover. The tour will conclude in the Sanctuary with a slide show presentation by Brookover featuring images of some of the historic art and objects recently discovered by our team of archivists from Bryn Mawr College. Guests will have the opportunity to ask questions, mingle and enjoy this sacred space. A reception with wine, beer and lite fare will follow. Can’t make it on the 14th? We will be holding this event again on Sunday, October 23 at 2:30pm.
