Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia

Event Staffing at the Philadelphia Museum of Art

Galas, weddings, and private celebrations at one of Philadelphia's most iconic venues deserve polished, professional teams. Meridian Talent House provides them.

Staffing for events at Philadelphia Museum of Art

Located at 2600 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, the Philadelphia Museum of Art's main building opened in 1928 and anchors the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Founded in 1876, the museum holds a collection of 240,000 objects, and its front steps are known worldwide as the Rocky Steps. It hosts galas, weddings, corporate receptions, and large public events, with the Great Stair Hall accommodating receptions of up to 1,000 guests.

Meridian Talent House is based in the Philadelphia area, so these venues are our home turf: local talent, fast response times, and teams that already know how event days flow here. Every team member is vetted and briefed on your brand before the event.

Meridian Talent House is an independent staffing agency. We staff events held at Philadelphia Museum of Art, and we are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the venue.
