FREE KIDS ACTIVITY with Cupola Academy!

Located on 10 picturesque acres in Malvern, PA, Cupola Academy is a secular, nonprofit learning community for ages 4–18. Our offerings are rooted in real learning, not just achievement. We facilitate part-time, in-person programs that support families who want something more holistic than school — and something more community-based than homeschooling on your own. Whether you’re homeschooling and looking for community, leaving a high-pressure private school, or stepping away from a rigid public system, you’re not alone.

Be sure to stop by Cupola Academy's Activity Station, where you'll get to discover the electrifying world of paper circuits through a hands-on project that's fun for all ages! You will learn about simple electrical circuits, how they work, and how to create them using conductive adhesive tape, LED lights, and batteries. You'll then incorporate these elements into your own imaginative art projects, such as a light-up greeting card!

Community wellness has always been at the heart of what we do.

We’re proud to create a space for our neighbors to nourish mind, body, and soul with the best that our local farmers, producers, and wellness partners have to offer!
