ART in the AIR

view of PECO Crown Lights display

Art in the Air is a digital art initiative developed through a Breadboard and PECO partnership. The goal is to utilize the PECO Crown Lights system in a new and different way, and provide recognition to local artists working in a digital format. The PECO Crown Lights (atop the PECO building located at 23rd and Market streets) will serve as an Art in the Air exhibition venue.
