For 30 years, the Avenue of the Arts, Inc. has supported the interests of arts organizations and businesses along South Broad Street, generated funds for capital reinvestment and beautification, and promoted business and events along Philadelphia’s grand boulevard. On October 6, 2023, the non-profit organization commemorated its 30th Anniversary and celebrated future plans that will continue to make the Avenue of the Arts Philadelphia’s premier destination for residential life, arts and culture, dining, business, and community. Friends, stakeholders, leaders, and neighbors recognized 30 years of Avenue of the Arts, Inc. with a gala event of food, drink, music, dancing, and a special presentation.
