(Re)Discover your favorite works in American Art.

With over one hundred of the most acclaimed and iconic pieces in American art on display, Making American Artists: Stories from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, 1776–1976 takes you on a journey across time, medium, and identity.

Experience drama, beauty, mystery, romance, and adventure on a guided group tour of PAFA. Knowledgeable and personable staff reveal the fascinating stories behind four centuries of American paintings, sculptures, and works on paper.

Organized by theme—portraiture, history painting, still life, genre scenes, and landscape—and not chronology, the exhibition affords the opportunity to enjoy familiar works in a new light and find new favorites.

Making American Artists is also your final chance to see these beloved works before they temporarily leave PAFA on a national exhibition tour.
