2019 Fellowship Purchases
The Fellowship of PAFA is very pleased to announce the following 2019 purchases for our Collection.
We are in the process of creating a pdf inventory list of our entire collection later this year.
This will be turned into a pdf checklist and a possible catalogue if the funding is realized.
Purchases for the Permanent Collection are shown at our Annual Member's Exhibition and are purchased by funds from the Mary Butler Trust. The collection is constantly evolving in order to benefit both the organization and our members through the purchase of these works.
To date there have been several large sales of Fellowship holdings by Christie's in New York and the Freeman’s Fine Art Auction House in Philadelphia. Profits from these sales are returned to the trust to support up and coming talent.
Our Permanent Collection consists of long term holdings such as the Charlotte Harding illustrations for Robin Hood and additional works of significance. We also hold items which are restricted from sale due to their historical significance or provenance such as the Mary Butler paintings. A portion of our collection is on display at the Academy's Hamilton Building and many of our pieces have been made available for display at Corporate Centers and Public Buildings. These beautiful works are part of the Fellowship "family album" and they are cherished and enjoyed often as we marvel at our talented Alumni.
