The Philadelphia Sketch Club is America's oldest continuously operating club for professional artists. The Sketch Club began operations in 1860, founded by six former PAFA students who wanted to improve their skills as illustrators. Over the years club members have been influential in the development of American art, both regionally and nationally. Members have included such luminaries as Thomas Eakins and N.C. Wyeth.

Just FYI - the official word on Date Night is that if the event is sold out, contact the Studio anyway. If there's enough interest another session will be added.

The P. Wilson exhibit is supposed to be about Phila architecture, and I frankly don't see it, but it's pretty cool nonetheless.

It's a lovely place to be in the evenings, I wish they had more outdoor programs particularly now that the weather is nice... and they need to add more tours because they always sell out before I find out about them.

I take my kids for Children's Festival almost every year and we're going this year too. It's one of the best programs for young children in the city, certainly the best in university city.

Interesting exhibits and a nice shop. I haven't taken classes but did "date night" and nice to get an original work of art out of the deal.
