The Cutting Room Floor: Invitational Collage Exhibition
In collaboration with Collage Philadelphia, The Athenaeum of Philadelphia is pleased to present The Cutting Room Floor, a group exhibition featuring works by twelve renowned artists. An ode to the process of collage, these works reflect the physical as well as conceptual choices—of removal and redaction, layering and accumulation, pairing and juxtaposing—each artist brings to their singular process of image-making.
Including works by Ian Berry, Alex Da Corte, Jake Dombroski, Emily Erb, Kensuke Kioke, Yannick Lowery, NDA Street Art, Lisa Roberts, Justin Ruby, Mark Wagner, Kira Wong, and Mario Zoots.
Sponsored in part by The Roger W. Moss Symposium Fund, Poor Richard's Charitable Trust, PNC Bank, and Collé.

Lynnewood Hall
Located in Elkins Park, Lynnewood Hall was designed by Horace Trumbauer in 1897 as a home for Peter A.B. Widener and his family. After serving as a residence and later a seminary, the 110,000-square-foot Gilded Age mansion was left vacant and crumbling for over thirty years.
Presented in partnership with The Lynnewood Hall Preservation Foundation, Inc., this exhibition is the first to display fragments from the building, personal items from the Widener family and archival photographs to tell the rich history of Lynnewood Hall and what the future holds for this storied property.
