Featured Activity

Flag Mask Making, just in time for Halloween! Artists are often influenced by their cultural background, international curiosities, and art that comes from the global exchange of ideas. Discover what art you can create from your own heritage by designing a mask representing your flag or flags! 

An oval-shaped, handmade patriotic paper mask is decorated with red and white horizontal stripes, featuring five small 3D origami paper stars on a painted blue section in the upper left corner.
An oval, textured face mask is constructed from sections representing different national flags, including the green, white, and orange of Ireland alongside the black, red, and yellow of Germany.

 

We're so excited you're planning to visit PAFA! 

Make time for art — visit us Thursday to Sunday.
Before reserving your tickets, please review helpful information about museum hours, accessibility, building access, and special admission programs.
