Our friends at Visit Philly are taking over the Big Apple with their new campaign focusing on “The City of Sisterly Love.” Philadelphia and Los Angeles-based street artist Amberella teamed up with Visit Philly to post graphic hearts with Philly Love messages in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Philly. Aunyea Lachelle has a preview.

Philadelphia is celebrating the power of sisterhood. The city council introduced a resolution to officially change the city’s nickname to “City of sisterly love” for 2020. The change is a tribute to the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment which recognized women’s right to vote.
