Visit Philadelphia launched the Philly Arts Event Finder on Sept. 16, a free, searchable tool on visitphilly.com that brings together arts events from more than 180 venues and organizations. From live music and theater to exhibitions, comedy, dance, film and festivals, the new tool gives residents and visitors one place to explore what’s happening across the region’s arts scene.

“Philadelphia has an incredible arts scene, but discovering everything that’s happening can take some work,” Dan Wisniewski, vice president of web at Visit Philadelphia, said in a news release. “We built the Philly Arts Event Finder to make discovery easier. Whether you have a free night, are looking for something to do with your kids or simply want to try something new, the Arts Event Finder gives you one place to start. And along the way, you might discover an artist, venue or experience you didn’t know about before.”

The Event Finder brings together programming from across Greater Philadelphia’s arts community, from galleries and community organizations to museums, theaters, music venues, universities and festivals. That range gives audiences more opportunities to find artists, venues and experiences beyond those they already know.

The tool launches as a pilot and will evolve based on how people use it, and feedback from the arts community.
