Celebrate the birthday of Violet Oakley with a special guided tour at Frances M. Maguire Hall for Art and Education. A pioneering Philadelphia artist, muralist, and cultural leader, Oakley became one of the leading figures of the American Renaissance through works that explored civic life, education, equality, and peace. Visitors will explore a selection of her artworks and discover how she used symbolism, storytelling, and imagination to create art that continues to inspire audiences today.
