The Arts League presents its 2026 Artist Convening Weekend, a multi-day celebration of artistic practice and community building in West Philadelphia. The weekend begins Friday, February 27 with a free community art auction featuring local artists, with all proceeds supporting accessible arts education, followed by Saturday’s full-day Artist Convening: Critical Making, which brings together workshop teachers, educators, and cultural workers for hands-on workshops and dialogue on equity-driven teaching and community-centered creative engagement. This event reflects The Arts League’s commitment to championing artistic voices and strengthening Philadelphia’s cultural landscape through shared creative practice.
