What Can You Do on Campus?
From lattes to cutting-edge exhibitions, from sidewalk cafes to experimental performances in quirky spaces, from the annual Fringe Festival to blockbuster museum shows, you can find it all within walking distance of the University of the Arts campus.

A Campus Inseparable from the City 
Like Philadelphia itself, the University of the Arts campus offers world-renowned art and architecture, intriguing galleries and lively theaters. Our classroom buildings and residence halls are interspersed with Philadelphia’s landmarks, skyscrapers and restaurants like ornate pieces scattered across a chess board.
