Meeting House by Candlelight

  • Arch Street Meeting House Preservation Trust 320 Arch Street Philadelphia, PA, 19106 United States (map)

Celebrate the holiday season at Arch Street Meeting House with live student musical performances from local Quaker schools, a live historical impersonator, kid-friendly crafts, and refreshments spread out across the museum and grounds.


By bringing together friends from across the region for a special holiday evening at Arch Street Meeting House, we encourage you to feel a sense of true community this winter and Meet Quaker History. As you enjoy our exhibits you can experience our historic West Room room in a whole new light! Constructed in 1811, the West Room will be lit by candlelight and visitors will be able to experience what worship would have felt like in the 19th Century.

After the event, Friends and visitors will be encouraged to explore other holiday sites throughout Old City, Philadelphia.


Special thanks to HomeLight for their sponsorship of this program.
