Brandywine, through its galleries and exhibition programs, provides the opportunity for artists to exhibit works of the highest quality, and for the Philadelphia area community and out-of-town visitors to experience the diversity and creativity of traditional printmaking. Exhibitions are presented in two venues -The Printed Image Gallery in the Firehouse Building at 730 S. Broad and the Glass Lobby Gallery at 728 S. Broad.

            The Printed Image Gallery

This museum quality gallery presents culturally and aesthetically diverse contemporary exhibitions. Staff and guest curators select works by former visiting artists and others, presented as one person and group exhibitions. Exhibition themes sometimes help direct the selection of artists for residencies, while others are jointly organized with various institutions or come to Brandywine as traveling exhibitions. All exhibitions are works on paper: prints, drawings, photographs and collages. (Artists’ applications for exhibitions are not accepted.)

The Glass Lobby Gallery

This gallery displays periodic exhibits from the Brandywine permanent collection and special projects.

National and International Traveling Exhibitions

Brandywine organizes exhibitions for touring nationally and throughout the world.  These exhibitions generally consist of prints produced by Visiting Artist Fellows. Prints from the collection are often loaned to other institutions for traveling exhibitions. Brandywine has also sponsored collaborative exhibits and international exchange programs.

Nationally, Brandywine programs target the culturally diverse populations of large urban areas and small- to mid-size institutions with need of high quality, affordable contemporary exhibitions.
