Join us on Friday August 10th, 6-8pm, for an exhibit and casual bbq
reception for Exchange!
This is our very first exhibit of the work
completed over the course of residents' community engagement
projects.
Bid farewell to our 2011-2012 residents, say hello to our
2012-2013 residents, and see how hard our artists work.
At our gallery,
4007 Chestnut St., 1st floor.
See work from these 2011-2012 projects -
Marie Alarcón: Park Pleasant Nursing Home & Rehab;
Michael Konrad: Neighborhood Bike Works;
E.K. Miles: A Renaissance is What They Call It (student-led art class for all ages);

The 40th Street Artist-in-Residence Program awards West Philadelphia artists 1 year of free studio space at 40th & Chestnut Sts. In exchange, residents share their talents within West Philadelphia by leading workshops, teaching classes, exhibiting, etc. Founded by artist Edward M. Epstein in 2003 and managed by Gina Renzi since 2008, we address the need for studio space in West Philadelphia, assist artists with career development, and make the 40th Street area a nexus for visual arts.
