Opened in November 2024 in partnership with the Philadelphia Water Department, Mural Arts Philadelphia and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, the Water Shed is a community-based hub offering flooding resources and free educational programs focused on empowering flood and community resilience.
