Curated by Conrad Benner, the founder and editor of street art photo blog streetsdept.com, the free exhibit features 13 works of art that interpret the idea of revolution at 13 locations in Old City, Society Hill and along the Delaware River Waterfront.

The selected street artists—one for each of the stars featured on the original American flag—will feature new and existing works during the exhibit’s six-week run. Among the artists charged with challenging the social and political status quo for this project are Kid Hazo, Michelle Angela Ortiz, Shawn Theodore and Yasmine Mustafa and Monica O. Works will appear both indoors and outdoors in all corners of the District—from Spruce Street Harbor Park to the National Museum of American Jewish History and from FringeArts to Franklin Square . An artist panel discussion will take place on June 7, 2017 at the The National Constitution Center to explore the exhibit’s revolutionary theme.

Part of Philadelphia’s Historic District campaign run by VISIT PHILADELPHIA, the exhibit aims to bring more people to the neighborhood and get them to see and do more while they’re there—visiting new attractions such as the Museum of the American Revolution and enjoying the bountiful historic, cultural, culinary, shopping and nightlife options.
