Yes, guests are welcome to use the gallery during cocktail hour as long as they leave their hors d'oeuvres and drinks at the door. The Barnes Foundation was established by Dr. Albert C. Barnes, and its goal is to "promote the advancement of education and the appreciation of fine arts and horticulture," as seen by its collection of unique works of art and rare plants, including cedar and Japanese maples. The world's largest private art collection is now housed there. The Barnes Foundation moved to a large new structure along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, minutes from Center City, Philadelphia, in 2012 after being originally planned and built in Merion, Pennsylvania. For those looking for an unmatched fusion of exquisite art, history, and floriculture, the 12,000-square-foot area, which matches the Merion location, is the perfect setting. The Barnes Foundation offers a choice of indoor and outdoor locations ideal for intimate and lavish weddings.
