the city with free museum admissions, themed tours, and festive family-friendly
activities.

Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. At
the Adventure Aquarium, enjoy an adults-only evening to sip, savor and get
up-close-and-personal with marine wildlife. The annual Tweetheart Social benefit for PAWS
