Writers Room, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and The Rail Park are collaborating for a special Seeding Joy workshop this Saturday (9/26) at Three Hearts Community Oasis, 915 Spring Garden St, from 11am - 1pm.

Rail Park Artist-in-Residence Yannick Lowery will lead participants in a collage workshop engaging Philadelphia’s history of resilience, resistance, and cultural heritage. Through art-making, dialogue, and writing we’ll imagine what our City could look like if it was guided by the needs and voices of its residents. Writers Room community members may remember Yannick from our Blues of the Bottom workshop when he was an UnMapping Fellow in 2024-25!

Seeding Joy will return to the Art Museum in October with Andrea Walls from the Museum of Black Joy. We’re so thrilled she's in the inaugural cohort of the PA Cultural Exchange Fellows, but will miss her this month.

Space is limited, please RSVP Here.
