Cherry Street Pier is a historic arts, events, and programming space located on the Waterfront. Once a century-old pier, it has been transformed into a vibrant hub for art, culture, and community. The pier features two floors of artist galleries, with a total of 14 galleries, and a large central exhibit space along the length of the pier. Its riverside end offers beautiful views of the river, the bridge, and New Jersey, creating a scenic backdrop for visitors to relax and reflect.
Throughout the year, Cherry Street Pier hosts a variety of events, especially on weekends from spring through fall, including flea markets, art shows, and seasonal activities like ice cream and food vendors. During the warmer months, there is a restaurant and bar in the back, along with craft beer, wine, and cocktails in the garden. The space is well maintained, spacious, and offers a safe environment for art lovers and families alike.
The pier also highlights local artists, including a select group of Black artists whose works are unique and affordable. Visitors can enjoy free access to explore, sit, and take in the views, making it a popular destination for both tourists and locals. Whether visiting for art, events, or simply a stroll along the waterfront, Cherry Street Pier offers a lively and scenic experience year-round.

Absolutely free place to chill and reflect. They do sell food and alcohol beverages if you want to splurge. Nice views of the Delaware River, art work and music.

We had a delightful time during Celebrate Asia. Sipped ciders by the river, strolled the pier and admired the art.
