Description

Moore College of Art & Design prepares students for lifelong learning and leadership in fine arts, design arts, art history, and art education.

As a College founded for women in 1848, Moore continues to advance the role of women in the visual arts and to ensure their success by bridging the worlds of education and work. As a leader in the arts and cultural communities, Moore promotes the visual arts through distinctive education and gallery programs.

Moore is a place where students from diverse backgrounds come together sharing similar goals, similar passions and similar dreams. Campus creates a close-knit, collaborative environment where small classes encourage big thinking and allow students to find the inspiration and support they need to achieve their personal and professional goals while developing a solid foundation in art and design concepts.

From internship opportunities to international experiences, whether exploring the streets, shops, galleries and museums of Philadelphia or getting lost in the shelves and stacks of books and art in the College's library, or witnessing groundbreaking works of art on campus, a Moore education is one that allows students to explore their interests, discover new passions, and develop as artists, leaders and individuals.

Life at Moore is each student's own creation. The campus' collaborative environment is a place where students form friendships and networks that last a lifetime. Together, life at the College and in the City of Philadelphia provide endless opportunities for inspiration and interaction.

Located in the heart of Philadelphia's Parkway Museums District, Moore College of Art & Design is an exciting cultural and educational destination for visitors and residents alike.
