Multitudes: Music and Poetry Inspired by Making American Artists

Saturday, March 18, 8:00 PM

7:00 PM doors open to view the exhibition

$15 (Friends and Family)

World Cafe Live and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) present Multitudes, a multisensory event series. Hear world premiere works from some of Philadelphia’s top performers commissioned by World Cafe Live, all inspired by PAFA’s current exhibition, Making American Artists: Stories from PAFA 1776 - 1976.

Multitudes asks five musicians and three poets to share their individual reflections of the artwork, presenting new narratives in American art history by spotlighting stories about women artists, LGBTQIA+ artists, and artists of color. The result is a highly personal and powerful illumination of what it means to be an American and an American artist today.

Doors will open at 7:00 PM. Come early and see the exhibition that inspired the artists.
