2026 Annual Meeting & Arts Party

The Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance's Annual Meeting & Arts Party returns on Tuesday, October 13, 2026 at the Independence Seaport Museum and we can't wait to celebrate with you.

This year's theme,“Anchoring Histories, Navigating Futures”, reflects a pivotal moment for our region as Philadelphia continues its America 250 celebration and looks ahead to the future of our cultural community.

Each year, more than 400 artists, cultural leaders, creative entrepreneurs, advocates and more gather for an evening of inspiration, connection, and celebration. Join us for updates on the Cultural Alliance's advocacy and initiatives, opportunities to connect with colleagues from across the sector, and delicious food and drinks as we celebrate the creativity and resilience of our region's arts and culture community.
