We are deeply saddened by the passing of Danny Simmons. The founder of Rush Arts and a champion of Black artists, Mr. Simmons has left a lasting impact on the Philadelphia community through the art he created.

“Mr. Simmons had a remarkable ability to bring people together through art, inspiring others to see the world through a more vibrant lens,” said AAMP's president and CEO Dr. Ashley Jordan. “His presence was as memorable as the masterpieces he created and championed.”

Mr. Simmons was a friend of the museum, joining us for more than one memorable event, and he will be missed dearly. Our hearts go out to his family and friends.
