New home for art school at Temple University

Temple University's Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia is ditching the leafy campus for an edgier, urban setting. A new $75 million building, opening in January, will anchor a growing arts hub on Temple's North Philadelphia campus and bring Tyler students closer to the city's bustling arts scene.

The architect is Carlos Jimenez Studio.To read The Philadelphia Inquirer article, click here.
