Philadelphia nonprofit Uplift Center for Grieving Children (Uplift), which provides free therapeutic grief support services and programs for youth and their families, announces Holding Grief: From Firsts to Always, a free exhibition of artwork created by local children, teens, and their caregivers through its “Uplifting Voices: Art That Speaks” community art program.
Holding Grief: From Firsts to Always recognizes that grief is not confined to singular moments but is an ongoing journey – from the first moment without someone to every moment after. Holding Grief will be held on Friday, November 6, 2026, from 5:00–7:30 p.m. at The Discovery Center (3401 Reservoir Dr, Philadelphia, PA 19121) in Strawberry Mansion. The free event will display works of art made during three free drop-in art nights which took place between June and August 2026. Attendees of all ages can enjoy creative activities, performances by the PME Drumline, and a catered buffet by Butter’s Soul Food.
