Wapuu or it didn’t happen, right? The WordCamp Philly team is super excited to debut four new Wapuus, fresh from the digital studio. Make sure you pick up a few Philly-style Wapuu stickers when you check in to WordCamp Philly on October 5.
First up is PAFApuu. Our WordCamp venue, The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts—PAFA for short—is the first art museum and school in the United States, so PAFApuu has geared up with traditional artist’s tools to inspire your creativity. (Be sure to check out the Paint Torch sculpture by Claes Oldenburg in the Lenfest Plaza between the PAFA buildings, to see the 51-foot version of PAFApuu’s paint brush.)
Next up we have Canvaspuu, who embraces a vibrant, edgy, modernist approach to their work while appreciating the long and varied history of fine art painting. (What’s currently on view at PAFA? A celebration of Alexander Hamilton, Contemporary Landscapes, and more. Current exhibitions at PAFA)
LOVEpuu has all the feels about WordPress and Philadelphia. What better way to represent that passion than with the world famous LOVE sculpture by Robert Indiana, found in LOVE Park? (Why the skateboard? Learn about LOVE Park’s history)
Philly-bred Grittpuu, a real playmaker, knows it takes grit to get out of your comfort zone and hit those goals. (Gritpuu is a huge fan of the Philadelphia Flyer’s mascot Gritty, who you should probably be following: @GrittyNHL.)
