Arts Lounge at the Annenberg
The Arts Lounge at the Annenberg Center is a new hub for the creative community, co-developed and managed by The Sachs Program for Arts Innovation and Penn Live Arts. It is part of a $2M renovation of the Annenberg Center’s public spaces made possible by a generous gift from alumni Keith and Kathy Sachs, and central to our goals at the Sachs Program for supporting the communities we serve and increasing visibility for the arts on campus.
The Arts Lounge features new exhibition space and infrastructure, equipment and support for programming, inviting new furniture and lighting, and, coming this spring, a commissioned mural by Philadelphia artist Isaac Tin Wei Lin, and a coffee cart that will feature local coffee and snacks.
