The Philadelphia Museum of Art is offering tickets for this exhibition at $35, but with CenterCity.Events you don’t need to wait or pay full price.
We don’t believe great art should be locked behind barriers — so if we can make it happen, you come completely free, or simply pay what you wish (suggested $20, optional up to $50 if you want to support).
For all Philadelphia Art Museum lovers, Rocky fans, boxing fans, and anyone who simply loves powerful stories in art — this is the night to join us.
We are coming to the opening of:

This exhibition explores how Rocky became more than a film character — turning into a global symbol of perseverance, struggle, and identity. From ancient sculptures to Warhol, Basquiat, Glenn Ligon, Hank Willis Thomas, and Lisa Brice, it connects boxing, celebrity, race, and public memory in one powerful journey.
If you are a true Rocky motivation fan, boxing enthusiast, or just love meaningful art experiences — this is your moment to experience it together with us.
