  • Summary

  • America's oldest art school, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, is closing its degreed programs after a perilous drop in enrollment. It is just one of the many arts and humanities programs that are being slashed, retooled, and shut down across America. Nico, who both attended and taught at art school, and Jessa discuss the state of arts education, the tight grip the MFA has on the imaginations of our young artists, and why our world trains so many artists for jobs that do not exist.
