ABOUT ART IN THE OPEN

AiO is a biennial citywide event that celebrates artists, their inspirations for creating art, and their relationships with the urban environment. This year, 30 artists were selected by jury to utilize the Schuylkill River Banks as their studios, making their creative process accessible to everyone. Working over the course of three days (May 13–15, 2016), these artists infused the River Trail—from the historic Fairmount Water Works to South Street—with art, inspiring new ways of seeing the river and Philadelphia.
