Art Exbihition
art-cThe Phillips’ Mill Art Exhibition is a juried show held each year in the fall. Entering artists must reside within a 25 mile radius of the Mill. The show attracts hundreds of local artists and the resulting Exhibition is very well attended. All works are for sale, and include paintings, works on paper and sculpture. The Exhibition is organized by the Art Exhibition Committee, a group of dedicated volunteers who put many hours into making the show the success it is.

Drama
drama-cEach year, the Drama Committee invites the public to enjoy their wildly popular productions, which include original musical comedies and cabarets featuring the music of well known song-writers. Seating is cabaret style and guests are invited to bring their own snacks and libations. The shows are produced by the Drama Committee, a group of enthusiastic thespians, singers and dancers who are having as good a time as the audience.

Photography
photography-cEach spring, the enthusiastic members of the Photographic Exhibition Committee hold the annual Phillips’ Mill Photographic Exhibition, fondly known as PMPE. It is the premier annual juried photography show in Bucks County, with many hundreds of visitors each year. PMPE is unusual because it has no annual theme, resulting in a wide variety of images, including digitally altered photographs. It receives both framed and digital submissions from artists across the country. PMPE also features a separate juried show of submissions from local high school students.

Forum
forum-cThe Forum is an annual event at the Mill at which topical issues are presented by experts for discussion and debate. Recent subjects have included the need to honor civil discourse, protecting local waterways, the impact of social media and the impact of emotions on physical health. The public is invited to participate in this always interesting event.

Children & Youth Activities
kids-cChildren’s theatre occurred at the Mill for many years, years ago. Recently, some very talented Mill members have revived that tradition by staging productions of both well-known and original musicals.
