It’s time to get into the holiday spirit! Gather family and friends and head over to the Penn Museum for the free 17th annual Peace around the World holiday celebration Sunday, December 2, 1:00 – 4:00 pm. Guests receive Museum “passports” with itineraries to “visit” diverse cultures and explore holiday traditions from around the world! The lively afternoon also features a Middle Eastern drumming workshop, a fusion dance workshop, a poetry reading and workshop, an Indian dance performance, storytelling, exotic facepainting, balloon art, international family crafts, and free treats for children!

The Museum’s all-volunteer Women’s Committee, the International Classroom Program, and Restaurant Associates, Penn Museum’s exclusive caterer and operator of the Pepper Mill Café, are sponsors of the celebration. Guests are invited to bring a new, unwrapped toy donation and help in the Museum’s efforts to support the Penn Volunteers in Public Service during their holiday drive for West Philadelphia charities.
