What is going on where 3 art schools have all closed so far just this year. My old school university of the arts, the phila academy of fine arts and the Delaware college of art and design. Which is crazy that it’s all happening at once.
I'm devastated. They just announced that PAFA is closing their college (degree earning programs) after this academic year.
While they're continuing the museum, certificate programs, commitment to K-12 arts programs and continuing education classes —the college and graduate degrees are ending.
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is the first and oldest art school in the United States. And the college is closing.
So so many famous artists attended or taught at PAFA!! All kinds of them too! Thomas Eakins. Mary Cassatt!!!!! Mike Berenstain (son of Stan and Jan, who took on illustrating the Berenstain Bears!). Apparently David Lynch? Don Martin! Howard Pyle!! Barkley L. Hendricks! James Metcalf, Henry O. Tanner, William Rush, Sarah Peale, Anna Peale, Jessie Willcox Smith, Maxfield Parrish, Henrietta Myers Miller (known professionally as Peter Miller). Thomas Cole. Robert Henri. Cecelia Beaux.
(it is also the first and oldest museum in the US, which thankfully isn't also being closed).
I wish the US funded the arts better. The college deserves to be saved as an iconic and immensely influential american institution, similar to the Smithsonian network of museums — with government funding. Hell, congress people should be FIGHTING to bail out PAFA, sustain it and treat it as a PAFA-Smithsonian arts institute funded by the government. Or SOMETHING. :(
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is ending its college at the end of the 2024-25 academic year, according to a letter published on its
It's going to close after reaching 220 years.

I miss modeling for Art folks. No other job gives me the feeling of being so connected to and surrounded by artists and their way of observing.
