Explore Philadelphia Attractions Virtually

One thing that makes Philly so special is the wealth of history, culture, museums and other attractions. While we are unable to enjoy them all in person right now, we can explore some of these destinations through: virtual tours, online programming, and video experiences — all available online, at no cost for you to enjoy any time! Check out a list below:

The Barnes Foundation

The vast and impressive Barnes Collection is now all available online! You can sort artworks by colors, lines, light and more. You can also sort by room, so you can really get the feel of the museum in a virtual way. 

The Clay Studio

The Clay Studio offers a digital catalogue of its permanent collection featuring more than 700 clay objects. Pottery lovers can also find a series of how-to clay tutorial videos, as well as live-streaming conversations. 

The Free Library

The Free Library has a vast amount of digital resources. With your library card, you can gain access to ebooks, audio books, movies, TV shows and electronic editions of publications like The New York Times and other publications. 

The Penn Museum

Looking through the digital archives at the Penn Museum will feel like stepping back in time. There are a million objects and artifacts from around the globe, from thousands of years ago. Take a look at art and artifacts from Mexico, Central America, Africa and other parts of the world as you learn about ancient civilizations, economies and colonization and watch fascinating videos.

Magic Gardens

Explore this iconic South Street destination online via a virtual 360-degree tour. There are also downloadable activity pages, tutorials on how to make a mosaic at home, or color some cool illustrations.
