The City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program has declared October as Mural Arts Month. Throughout the month, there will be plenty of opportunities to participate in the program. A free trolley tour of Philadelphia’s murals will be available on October 19th from 15th street and Locust street. Reservations are required since space is limited and can be made by calling 215-925-3633 or by emailing tours@muralarts.org. If that event becomes full, self guided audio tours of “The Mural Mile” leave daily from The Gallery on 9th and Market streets from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Experience the murals at a self-set pace while learning tidbits and interesting facts about the prominent Philly artwork and the artists. Price is $20.

Laurel Hill Cemetery is already in the Halloween season, bringing ghost stories to the stage October 17th through 19th. All performances begin at 7pm. “Not Ready for the Afterlife Players,” a theater group, will take the stage at the cemetery to act out the stories of those buried there. Bring blankets or chairs to set up in between the graves. Admission is $20.
