Welcome to the pennsylvania academy of the fine arts!

Plan your visit to PAFA by reviewing our most frequently asked questions, including information about holiday closures, museum discounts and family programs. 

The Historic Landmark Building (HLB) at PAFA is temporarily offline for a planned HVAC system renovation project until Spring of 2026. However, in the meantime, please enjoy our exhibitions next door, in the Samuel Hamilton Building. 

On view in the Hamilton Building: the William Villango:  Myths and Migrations Exhibition, open until August 31, 2025. This exhibition presents 20 years of work by New York-based artist William Villalongo, including figural and narrative paintings, works on paper, and sculpture that incorporate flocking, cut paper, and collage.  Bodies, objects, and interstital spaces in Villalongo's work help navigate ideas about seeing and being seen, while also connecting contemporary concepts of presence and erasure with their antecedents through time and across cultures.

Before your visit, download PAFA's Digital Guide.
