Music

Renowned for their vibrant rhythms and infectious energy, Los Bomberos De La Calle is dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich Afro-Caribbean traditions of Puerto Rico. A staple in Philadelphia’s local music scene, the band will perform as part of Garden Jams, Penn Museum’s outdoor summer concert series.

Special Events

Organized by the Institute for Translational Medicine and Therapeutics, this program will feature the ceramic work of Artist-in-Residence Marguerita Hagan, who transforms complex scientific concepts into tangible, visual forms rendered on ceramic shields. Attendees will experience firsthand how these clay shields act as conversation starters, breaking down scientific jargon and making complex ideas more relatable. Register to attend.

Participants will celebrate the 250th birthday of the U.S. Post Office by making mail. Visitors can use the letterpress to print a quote from the first postmaster general Benjamin Franklin and pull from the Common Press’s rubber stamp collections to create mail art. Registration is required.
