It’s going to be BIG FUN. Isn’t fun the best thing way to soothe the soul, especially in these times??!!

The books have arrived!! Woodmere: Telling the Story of Philadelphia’s Art and Artist is finally here, and just in time for the opening of the new Frances M. Maguire Hall .

Writing the book was an honor and a tremendous collaborative endeavor. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who shared their time, stories, and trust. What we ended up with isn’t just a book about art — it’s a love letter to this city’s creative heartbeat.

Hoping this is one of many more projects that celebrate the passion of people and organizations shaping art and culture past and present. Special shoutout to , the incredible Woodmere staff including Laura Heemer, Amy Ferracci, Marie Latham, Hildy Tow and Rick Ortwein. The editorial/ design team of Barb Barnett, Kelly Tenan and Gretchen Dykstra. And our printer in Slovenia, Greenleaf.
