Art and Culture in Philadelphia
"Even if you’ve never been to Philadelphia, you’ve probably seen the art museum (that’s all you have to say, everyone will know which one you mean). It’s famous in pop culture for the Rocky steps, but the cultural powerhouse is much more than that. Originally created for the 1976 Bicentennial celebration, it has grown over the years to include 240,000 art pieces. There’s a little of everything inside: ancient Egyptian and pre-Columbian art, traditional Asian and European designs, and works by artists like Picasso and Salvador Dali. Admission is $20 for adults, and the first Sunday of every month is free from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, as well as Wednesdays from 5:00 PM to 8:45 PM. There’s also a Rocky statue in the front to pose by, if running up the stairs is all that’s on your itinerary." - MATADOR_NETWORK
