Art is for Everyone at the Rittenhouse Square

Art is for Everyone at the Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show 

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – August 16, 2023 – The Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show (RSFAS) returns to the Square in center-city Philadelphia on September 15-17, marking its 96^th year bringing fine art to all at this free event. One hundred forty-five professional artists from around the country and Canada will exhibit their originals-only fine art work around the perimeter of the park.

The Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show began in 1928 with a handful of local art students exhibiting art on clotheslines. The show continues its original foundation with a platform for student artists to learn from professional artists and gain exposure to patrons.

This year, the RSFAS will feature the Fleisher Art Memorial in the center of the park.  Celebrating its 125^th anniversary, Fleisher Art Memorial is one of the country’s oldest nonprofit community art schools, committed to advancing the vision of their founder, Samuel S. Fleisher, who believed that art is one of society’s greatest assets and equalizers. From the doorway of his Graphic Sketch Club, he “invited the world to come and learn art.”

More information about the Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show and images of each of the 145 participating professional artists’ artwork can be found on the RSFAS website: www.rittenhousesquareart.com.
