Creative Philadelphia offers opportunities for all Philadelphians to thrive through the arts. Previously known as the Office of Arts, Culture, and the Creative Economy, our office aims to:

• Increase public access to arts and culture.
• Partner with local creative communities.
• Highlight the city’s cultural assets.

In all our endeavors, we are guided by the values of collaboration, creative expression, economic opportunity, equity and inclusive diversity, positive social change, and stewardship and sustainability.

We envision a safer, cleaner, and greener city where creatives can thrive both socially and economically. Our goal is to enrich everyone’s life through arts and culture.
