A brand new outdoor mural entitled In the Palm of Your Hand, by local artist Nila Devaney, has been installed on the historic grounds of Arch Street Meeting House! Illustrated by Devaney with management from Amber Art & Design and Quaker artist Keir Johnston of Newtown Monthly Meeting, the mural features depictions of lush greenery and interpretive figures of notable Quakers from Philadelphia history.
The mural is currently on view and visitors are welcome, and a dedication ceremony will occur during Continuing Sessions on Saturday, November 5th at 1:00 pm outdoors on the grounds of the meetinghouse.
Support for the mural was provided in part by the Philadelphia Cultural Fund, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, and friends dedicated to the preservation of Quaker history at Arch Street Meeting House
