Double Rainbows
Curated by Rob Blackson





During the pandemic when families in Philadelphia couldn’t go out to play, children helped bring joy to neighbors by displaying rainbows in windows from inside their homes. Created in a partnership between Please Touch Museum, Temple Contemporary at the Tyler School of Art and Architecture, and Philadelphia Contemporary Double Rainbows is an in-person and online exhibition of these rainbows.
After the exhibition the drawings were given to families across the city, who lost a loved one to the coronavirus, as a show of caring and compassion. Rainbows have also beeen distributed to partnering hospitals to brighten up COVID wards.
