Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts
118 N. Broad Street
Philadelphia, PA 19102
You can't think of Philadelphia without thinking of the nation's oldest art academy, its eye-candy architecture and its collections that date back to Charles Peale. See you’re thinking of it — we told you.
A jewel nestled in the heart of Center City, the Pennsylvania Academy's vast collection of American art boasts treasures by local and national luminaries such as the aforementioned Charles Willson Peale (founder of the Academy), Thomas Eakins (who taught here), and the Wyeths.
