Corporate Spotlight: Anthropologie Deepens Roots in Philadelphia with Impact-Driven Partnerships

This month, we’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on Anthropologie, a global lifestyle brand that’s demonstrating a deep commitment to its Philadelphia community. Anthropologie has announced three new philanthropic partnerships, investing in causes that resonate with their core values: arts education, women’s empowerment, and sustainability.

Beyond a generous $10,000 donation, Anthropologie is taking a hands-on approach, partnering with local organizations to create meaningful volunteer opportunities, local activations, and engaging events. This collaborative effort aims to further foster the vital work being done within our city.

We at Mural Arts are honored to be among these chosen partners. Anthropologie’s support will directly contribute to our mission of bringing arts education and beautification to neighborhoods across Philadelphia. Through this partnership, we’ll be able to further foster creativity and inspire positive social change within our local communities.

Our relationship with Anthropologie is already blossoming into a dynamic collaboration. We’re excited to announce that upcoming site visits to Anthropologie’s headquarters will provide invaluable opportunities for students in our Art Education program to experience the world of design and creativity firsthand. Additionally, Anthropologie employees will be rolling up their sleeves and joining us for hands-on volunteer paint days, directly contributing to the beautification of our city. Their commitment extends throughout the year, with continued program support ensuring that our impact is both meaningful and sustainable.

Anthropologie’s commitment goes beyond simply writing a check. They are actively seeking to create a tangible impact, working alongside us to bring art directly to the people. This partnership will allow us to expand our reach and deepen our engagement with the communities we serve.

We’re excited to collaborate with Anthropologie and witness the positive impact we can create together. Stay tuned for updates on upcoming site visits, volunteer opportunities, and events as we work to bring art to life throughout Philadelphia, thanks to the generous support of Anthropologie.

“As a brand born and rooted in Philadelphia, Anthropologie has always been deeply connected to this city—its creativity, its energy, and its community. That’s why we are so proud to formalize our partnership with Mural Arts Philadelphia, an organization that so closely aligns with our core values of creativity and community,” said Chelsea Renner, Cause Marketing Manager for Anthropologie.  “Their dedication to arts education, inclusion, and belonging is truly inspiring, and we are honored to support their incredible work. This partnership is more than a commitment—it’s a reflection of who we are. We’re excited to roll up our sleeves, collaborate, and create lasting, meaningful change in the city we love.”

We are grateful to Anthropologie for their commitment to Philadelphia and their belief in the power of art to transform lives and communities.
