Horace Pippin (1888-1946), John Brown Going To His Hanging, 1942, Oil on Canvas.

Welcome to the Museum! 

There is much to see in the Samuel M.V. Hamilton Building including Making American Artists: Stories from PAFA 1776 – 1976, Strange Sensations: The Startling and Surreal in PAFA's Collection, and Negotiating Grids.

In the Historic Landmark Building, experience our joint exhibition with the African American Museum in Philadelphia, Rising Sun: Artists in an Uncertain America. We encourage you to consider a Joint Ticket to visit both museums at an overall reduced rate for the duration of the exhibition.
One of the galleries houses a two-part installation: the ground level of the gallery is connected to an upper level view by a staircase. By purchasing a ticket to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA), all visitors and parents or guardians of minors affirm that they have read and understood, and willingly assume, the risks and terms described herein, at this link.

Note: If you believe you are entitled to special complimentary admission to PAFA through a recriprocal program or institutional membership (Libraries, Universities and museum staff) you must be prepared to show proper ID or documentation at the desk when you arrive to receive free entry. You do not need to register in advance.
