4:30 to 5:30 p.m. Sponsor Reception Come and discover a new world with us! The Philadelphia Museum of Art is a treasure trove of wonderful art from all over the world. Special art activities, performances, food and music will allow you to experience all seven continents in one day, without ever leaving Philadelphia! For more than ten years, families have gathered at the Philadelphia Museum of Art for the Every Family Party. This year's event will once again be a wonderful opportunity for over 1,000 children, parents, grandparents and friends to enjoy the Museum together, while raising much needed funds to support the Museum’s award-winning educational programs. All proceeds from the Every Family Party benefit the Museum's innovative Division of Education, which has developed nationally and internationally recognized programs for children, families, adult learners, and special audiences alike. They also offer options for teachers to bring the arts to life in their classroom through Museum lesson plans and teaching posters, distance learning, or hands-on art activities with a visiting studio instructor. These educational programs are based on the philosophy that art is a powerful and versatile tool that can have a tremendous impact on the lives of children and how they live in and perceive the world.
