Philadelphia Culture: The Mummers Museum opened in 1976, and is dedicated to the Philadelphia celebration of the new year. The museum houses a rich collection of mummers' paraphernalia and memorabilia, including spectacular costumes, a few of which date back to the turn of the 20th Century.
The Mummers Museum includes an on-site gift shop offering unique mummers products, an online store, and a luxurious banquet hall which is available for rental. The museum conducts interesting programs for both children and adults, and offers complimentary outdoor string band concerts during periods of mild weather. |
