The Alumni Association provides institutional support and connection for all former students of the Academy. Currently composed of more than 7,000 alumni living and working throughout the United States and abroad, the Alumni Association enables former students to tap into the resources of fellow alumni through the web, the Preview magazine and regional activities.

Nearly every milestone in the region's artistic history and nearly every great artist emerging from Philadelphia are linked to the Academy.

Alumni Association Mission

• Engage the alumni and foster a strong bond between the Academy and its alumni
• Provide opportunities to alumni in regards to connection and exhibition and promote the alumni as artists

Fellowship

Founded in 1897 by painter Robert Vonnoh, the Fellowship is an organization of alumni whose goal is to establish and continue mutual support and a spirit of fraternity among former and present students of the Academy. Based in Philadelphia, the Fellowship sponsors numerous activities throughout the year. Its major annual event, since its founding, is a members' juried exhibition in the Philadelphia area. All past and present students of the Pennsylvania Academy are eligible to become members of the Fellowship. The Fellowship is independent of the Alumni Association and membership requires a fee. For more information, call the Fellowship's voicemail at 610-520-9286 or visit their website at http://pafafellowship.org/.
