On behalf of the Alumni Council at the University of the Arts, it is my pleasure to announce Reunion 2009!

Like our inaugural reunion event in 2008, this weekend will be full of engaging presentations, receptions, tours, exhibits, performances and social gatherings designed to showcase all that UArts is and has become. We encourage you to see old firends and make new ones, visit professors, observe classes, celebrate our histroy, and be a part of creating our future.

For those who may not know, 2009 is a special year for the University. Fifty years ago, the Phladelphia Museum School of Art received formal accreditation from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and shortly thereafter offically became the Philadelphia College of Art - so for this Reunion, we've added several signature events that will make our PCA'ers proud. If you would like to get a sneak peak at what's in store, feel free to check out the full weekend program for more details. New information will be added every few weeks.

Dancer. Doctor. Firefighter. Teacher. Thespian. Sculptor. CEO. Critic. Mother. Musician. No matter where life has taken you since your college experience, we invite you to simply...COME AS YOU ARE. There has never been a better time to reconnect with your alma mater. We look forward to welcoming you back in October!

Sincerely,

Lisa (Potter) Oster '99
