This exhibit provides an immersive experience that places children and families in Colonial America/Philadelphia in the 1770s. Historic landmarks in Philadelphia’s “Old City” served as inspiration for the exhibit’s look/feel, exhibit components, and story line. 

From Germantown to Devil’s Pocket, Mt. Airy to Manayunk, the Metcalfe staff has a clear appreciation of Philadelphia’s neighborhoods and eccentricities – and a deep love for the place they work and (most of us) live.
