First Friday at Elfreth's Alley - Featuring an Historic Building Scavenger Hunt

  • Elfreth's Alley Association 124-126 Elfreths Alley Philadelphia United States (map)

Calling all historic building detectives and super sleuths! The Elfreth’s Alley Museum will be hosting an historic building scavenger hunt in their 18th century buildings and 19th century garden to test your 21st century minds! 

Learn how to read the clues on historic buildings and see how historic maps and insurance policies can help tell a story-all while enjoying a beautiful summer night in Old City.

This event is part of the Elfreth’s Alley Association 2023 First Friday Series and is free to attend. (But donations are always welcome! )

The event will run from 5:00 - 8:30 pm at the Elfreth’s Alley Museum, 124-126 Elfreth’s Alley. For those new to the street, please do not drive on the street or allow your Uber/ Lift/ taxi to drive up the alley. It’s best to have your ride drop you off at Front St and Elfreth’s Alley. Many nearby parking garages can be found by searching your favorite mapping program. 

This free First Friday event is generously sponsored by Premier Building Restoration.
