Good morning, Philadelphia.

On Friday, Philadelphia unveiled 22 fiberglass replica Liberty Bells at a school district warehouse in Olney, each decorated by a local artist to reflect neighborhood stories.

The bells were sealed for display and will later be distributed throughout all counties to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary.

Philadelphia's planned Museum of Sports has chosen the former Lit Brothers building at Seventh and Market for a 12,000 sqft space and seeks a financial backer to secure a lease and local incentives + if funding is secured, the nonprofit will open in three to four months to display rare memorabilia.

State data from the Arts Education Data Project shows over 70% of public school students take at least one arts course, with over 80% participating in Philly schools.

Smaller districts, such as Somerset (7.5%) and Shamokin (11%), report much lower enrollment likely due to funding gaps.

Mayor Parker announced that starting Thursday, Philadelphia small businesses (earning less than $250,000 per year) can get free tax assistance to file their returns.

The program follows a court ruling that ended an exemption for about 50,000 businesses and will use 19 preparers offering help in 13 languages.

The Philadelphia 76ers are showing strong play as Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Paul George deliver key contributions this season.

The team is on track for a deeper playoff run as their roster remains healthy and united—improving their chances as the regular season continues.

The Flyers hit the halfway mark toward a 10-game losing streak after a tough loss to the Rangers at home as goaltending struggles + injuries affected the team.

The club may make roster changes soon, with the front office set to weigh trade options before the deadline.
