Wagner began offering free lectures on science at his home, Elm Grove, a colonial farm estate on the outskirts of Philadelphia in 1847. To illustrate the lectures, he drew on a collection of specimens he had gathered since his boyhood. All of the classes were offered with an open admission policy that allowed women as well as men to attend. These lectures became so popular that by 1855 he moved them first to a public hall to accommodate the rapidly growing audience, and later to its permanent home designed by Philadelphia architect <a href="/wiki/John_McArthur_Jr." title="John McArthur Jr.">John McArthur Jr.</a>, who would go on to design Philadelphia's <a href="/wiki/City_Hall_(Philadelphia)" class="mw-redirect" title="City Hall (Philadelphia)">City Hall</a>. </p><p>Wagner continued to lecture and to lead the unique institution until his death in 1885. The Board of Trustees then appointed <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Leidy" title="Joseph Leidy">Joseph Leidy</a>, a biologist of international reputation, to head its scientific and educational programs. Leidy's appointment ushered in an active and productive era in which the Institute's mission and programs were greatly expanded. Leidy's most lasting and significant contribution to the Institute was his reorganization of the Institute's museum.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He greatly enlarged Wagner's original collection by further field collection, purchases and other acquisitions.
