Fall 2022

FALL 2022 Courses are full! Please check back in December for the Spring courses.

The After-School Studio Arts Program for High School Students is back in-person! This free program will offer two courses:

• Foundations of Drawing, 4-6 PM, Tuesdays, Oct 4 - December 6
• Introduction to Oil Painting, 4-6 PM, Thursdays, Oct 6 - December 15 (no class on Thanksgiving)

Students in the School District of Philadelphia and schools that previously partnered with this program will have the opportunity to register before remaining spots are made available to the broader public. Art teachers will receive information about nominating students. If you are a student in the School District of Philadelphia and are interested in this program, please reach out to precollege@pafa.org. 

Pre-College programs will be in-person to safely support young artists. All participants are required to be vaccinated, and boosted (if eligible). PAFA will be limiting classroom density and deep cleaning all areas. We're excited to be a space of creative expression for teens!

If you have questions, please reach out to precollege@pafa.org or 215-972-7630
