Old City Arts was formed in 1976 bringing together a rag tag group of individual visual artists, dancers, actors, musicians, writers, filmmakers, performers and inventors seeking “to enhance the integration of the arts into the life of this community [Old City] and Philadelphia as a whole.”
Old City Arts thrived for nearly 5 years organizing festivals and performances that celebrated collaboration, the creative process and the wonders of the neighborhood where they lived and worked.
