Remembering Isaiah Zagar

Zagar poses with Museum interpreters in 2022 during a photoshoot at PMG promoting our Occupied Philadelphia event.
The Museum of the American Revolution joins the larger Philadelphia community in mourning the loss of Isaiah Zagar, renowned mosaic artist and founder of Philadelphia's Magic Gardens (PMG). Zagar's artistry and contributions to the city remain a vital part of what makes Philadelphia Revolutionary today. We extend our sympathies to his family, friends, colleagues, and to those associated with PMG, which the Museum has previously partnered on programming.
