Free Art, Shark Teeth, and Holi — Your Philly Weekend
March is doing that thing where it's technically spring but nobody believes it yet. Good news: this weekend has something for every energy level — a free community art day in South Philly, First Friday on the waterfront, a free music class for the little ones, and a shark tooth dig at the Wagner.
Big energy
Free Community Day with SEAMAAC
Saturday · 12 PM
American Swedish Historical Museum · South Philadelphia · · All ages
🟢Free · Walk-ins welcome (RSVP helps them plan) · Free parking along Pattison Ave · Food vendors on site
The American Swedish Historical Museum is teaming up with SEAMAAC for a free community day to close out their Indivisible exhibition. Your kid can help build a collaborative mosaic, paint pots, and plant seeds — all led by SEAMAAC teaching artists. The museum is tucked inside FDR Park off Pattison Ave — free street parking, easy in and out. Admission is free for the event, and there will be food and drink vendors if you want to grab something. Big bags aren't allowed in the galleries but there are lockers downstairs. It's the kind of afternoon where you show up, make something together, and leave with dirt under your fingernails in a good way.
