“Promoting the arts and education is a core value at PNC, and given that the
Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens is one of the great and largest cultural
resources in Northeast Florida, it’s a win-win,” said Brian Bucher, PNC
regional president of North Florida. “Free Fridays provides access to
quality, visual art experiences, while supporting the cultural vitality of this
region.”
“Our annual Summer at the Cummer gives everyone another reason to love
Fridays, and we could not be more excited to welcome our community back for a
welcomed and much-needed summer of fun and friendship,” said Andrea
Barnwell Brownlee, PhD, the Cummer Museum’s George W. and Kathleen I. Gibbs
director & chief executive officer. “We are grateful to PNC Bank for
once again sponsoring this annual tradition with free admission for all.”
