As a temporary home for the Art Student
Philadelphia has u n i que advantages.
Known as the II City of Homes II it affords
good living at a lower cost than is possible
in any other large city in the East.
In hi storical interest it is rich, and its
suburbs easy of access off~r unus ual
change for out-of-door work. Opportunities
for general culture are varied and the
Academy is fortuna tely able to secure
s pecial rates for its students to many of the
lectures and concerts given each season.

~

!

The Academy itself is centrally located
and within short walking distance from it
are good boarding-places. The two principal railroad sta tions are each within fi ve
minutes' walk.

('

Recognizing that a comfortabl e living
place is an aid to serious study the management invites correspondence with students
from a distance and offers freely its information and aid.
