This exhibition runs from September 12, 2025 through October 16, 2026. If These Walls Could Talk: An Invitation into the Home and Life of Anthony J. Drexel is an exhibition highlighting the family home of Anthony J. Drexel at his old 39th and Walnut property in the once Drexel Colony of West Philly. Using actual pieces found in his home, If These Walls Could Talk looks to transport its visitors into the heart of the 39th and Walnut residence, allowing them to envision what his home – and in tandem Anthony J.

Hosted by: Drexel University Libraries, Collections & Archives, with the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences (College of Arts & Sciences) and Atwater Kent Collection at Drexel

This first display of the Library Exhibit Initiative features an assignment from PSY 101 General Psychology (Winter 2024-25). Prof. Eric Zillmer asked students to select a spot in the city that brings them happiness—and visit Philadelphia Revealed, an exhibition from the Atwater Kent Collection.

The Philadelphia Challenge presents students’ reflections on objects from this city history collection, interactive elements, and a Happiness Map display by the Happiness Lab at Drexel. The Library Exhibit Initiative will continue to feature students interacting with Drexel collections and archives.
