Roots of Resilience: The 2026 DRWC Flag Exhibition

Celebrate Philadelphia’s immigrant history through bold and beautiful flags created by artists from around the world.

Roots of Resilience explores the many cultures that have helped shape the city. Artists were invited to design flags that tell stories of hope, strength, and community, honoring the journeys of those who made Philly their home.

From textiles to digital art, these powerful designs will fly high at Spruce Street Harbor Park all summer long.

Come see how art connects past and present, and how Philadelphia’s story continues to grow.
