120th Annual Student Exhibition Preview
The Women's Committee of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts invites you to consider supporting or sponsoring the 120th Annual Student Exhibition Preview, which will be held on Thursday, May 13, 2021. This annual event is unlike other graduating student art exhibitions. The Annual Student Exhibition (ASE) offers students-artists the chance to curate and display their work in a world-class museum of American Art.
The Preview kicks off the historic Annual Student Exhibition and offers guests the first chance to purchase nearly 1,000 paintings, sculptures, and works on paper created by PAFA's BFA and MFA candidates, all on the verge of their professional careers. Sponsors and ticket buyers can be proud that all proceeds from the event support PAFA student scholarships.
If you are unable to attend the Preview Party, but wish to support student scholarships, please consider purchasing an Angel level ticket or making a gift online.
Direct any questions to PAFA's Development Office at 215-972-2077 or ase@pafa.org.
