That is a suggestion worth heeding at all times, but particularly when welcoming friends, whether old or new, to your home. The Philadelphia Museum of Art is very much like a home. It houses some 227,000 works of art. It welcomes between 600,000 and 800,000 people—often more— every year. It is a place to gather for special occasions, large and small. In the case of our Museum “home,” such special occasions include the debut of an exhibition featuring works of art from around the world, or a family day that brings together visitors from throughout the city. “Hanging out” at the Museum is a spe- cial occasion too, an opportunity for serious study or creative play. It is also a place where we come together—in galleries, classrooms, studios, auditoriums—to learn about art. Because learning about art is, ultimately, learning about ourselves and each other. Our homes convey a sense of who we are. And so does the Museum. Its inter- nationally recognized and celebrated exterior speaks of the treasures to be experienced within.

    Statement of the ACLU Greater Philadelphia Chapter, ACLU of Pennsylvania, Americans For Prosperity – Pennsylvania, The Center for Emerging Visual Artists, Commonwealth Foundation, French Heritage Society, Institute for Justice, Institute of Contemporary Art, Mural Arts Program, Painted Bride Art Center, Property Rights Alliance, Molly Dougherty, Professor Patricia M. Smith, and Rev. Dr. Mark K. Tyler in Opposition to the Condemnation of James Dupree’s Art Studio Dear Mayor and City Council: We write to urge this body not to proceed with the condemnation of James Dupree’s art studio at 3617 Haverford Avenue. Mr. Dupree’s case is straightforward: The city of Philadelphia is abusing its power of eminent domain. The city wants to bulldoze Mr. Dupree’s 8,600-square-foot property and replace it with a grocery store and parking lot. Eminent domain is supposed to be used for “public use,” such as for roads and schools. A grocery store is not a public use. Additionally, the unreasonable valuation is not “just compensation,” which is another constitutional requirement, and thus is a denial of due process. Seizing James Dupree’s art studio is not only unconstitutional and a gross abuse of eminent domain, it is unconscionable. Dupree, a native son of Philadelphia, is one of the city’s most highly regarded artists. Five of his paintings are housed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and numerous pieces of his are displayed throughout the city. Mr. Dupree turned a broken-down warehouse and garage into a unique art space where he works and has hosted art classes. He would like to start a mentorship program in Mantua so that inner-city kids can learn to appreciate art.
