• 5 into 1 - We returned to Moore College of Art and Design for our 2024 exhibition of the works of graduating sculpture students from five area colleges: Moore College of Art and Design, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Tyler School of Art, The University of the Arts, and University of Pennsylvania. The exhibition took place from June 15 - September 1, 2024. 9 students were chosen by a committee of young PS members. The opening was combined with another opening so it attracted about 150 people. The event space, installation help and reception costs were donated by Moore College of Art and Design.

  Expenses $1,050

• We participated in the Philadelphia exhibition program ReFocus which celebrated the 50th anniversary of the 1974 program of Feminist art. Our contribution was The Artfront Partnership from February 1 through May 30, 2024. Five artists created original illuminated art installations for storefronts in two neighborhoods in Philadelphia, addressing the theme of the subconscious mind. Since this was a public installation, hundreds of people were able to see the installations over the course of time they were there. All the storefronts were donated. In addition, an opening reception was held in one of the venues that attracted about 75 people. Please note that the grant and some of the expenses for this project were received and expended in 2023.

  Expenses $3,828 · Grants $10,000
