It's so exciting to here people talk about my hometown!

Just a few blocks from the Convention Center is the Pennsylvania Academy of
Fine Arts which is much smaller than the PMA but has an interesting mix of
American and contemporary collections and the building is interesting too.
Also, I've never been there but I've heard the Fabric Workshop is great for
anyone interested in contemporary art.

Enjoy,
