Penn State Old Main Campus - Poster

Old Main Pennsylvania State University, State College, Pennsylvania
Standing at the heart of campus, Old Main is Penn State’s most iconic landmark and a symbol of the university’s proud history. Originally built in 1863 and rebuilt in 1930, its stately columns and soaring bell tower overlook the lawn where students, alumni, and visitors gather year-round. Once home to classrooms and administrative offices, Old Main now serves as the seat of university leadership and a lasting emblem of Penn State tradition.

This design centers on Old Main’s grand façade and tower, celebrating its role as the visual and spiritual heart of the university. With classic detail and timeless style, the artwork honors a place where generations of Nittany Lions have begun their journey and carried forward Penn State pride.
