ABOUT ABOUT

Members of Bethesda Project's Legacy Society are invited to enjoy the fall season together during a special guided walking tour led by Philadelphia's Magic Gardens (PMG). The tour will begin at Bethesda Project's My Brother's House, where we will learn about the mosaic that lives on the building's facade. We will then make our way through the neighborhood to the Magic Gardens museum where the group will have time to explore. Afterwards, please join us for community, conversation, and light bites at the nearby AIA award winning home of David and Louise Strawbridge with special guest Isaiah Zagar.

Tickets are $50 per person and space is limited. Please note that we will be walking approximately one mile between all stops, so please plan accordingly. After registering, you will receive a follow-up email with additional instructions. We look forward to connecting with you in person!

About PMG: Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens is an immersive mixed media art environment that is completely covered with mosaics. The creator, Isaiah Zagar, used handmade tiles, bottles, bicycle wheels, mirror, and international folk art to chronicle his life and influences. The museum is made up of two indoor galleries and a bi-level outdoor sculpture garden.

Additional Notes: As we kick off National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week (Nov. 11-18), please consider bringing a non-perishable food item along with you or visit our Amazon Wish List to purchase needed supplies for Bethesda Project's guests and residents.
