Ministry of Awe gets festive with a one-of-a-kind family experience

The Ministry of Awe is known for being inventive, but now, it’s getting extra festive for Philly families. Housed inside a transformed 19th-century bank, the space opened this past spring with creations from muralist Meg Saligman (MoA's founder) and over 100 artists, makers, spirits and shadows. The result is a six-story work of art that will “break into your brain and seize your senses.”
