On Practice: Pew Fellows in Conversation

What does it take to sustain a creative life? The On Practice series, presented by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage in partnership with the Barnes, brings the 2025 cohort of Pew Fellows in the Arts together to share artistic process, influences, and ideas behind their work. Join us for an intimate look at how the artists shaping Philadelphia’s cultural scene experiment, discover, and create.

Today’s program features director and performance artist Rose Jarboe, multidisciplinary artist José Ortiz-Pagán, and visual artist George Rodriguez in a conversation about community-engaged creative practice and making work designed to contextualize and respond to public spaces. The Center’s Zach Blackwood moderates the discussion.

This event takes place in the Comcast NBCUniversal Auditorium.
