WE ARE Everywhere

WE ARE PENN STATE

Inspired by unity and part of the Artist Signature Series, the WE ARE merchandise collection features the iconic design of Jonathan Cramer’s 12-foot stainless steel WE ARE sculpture at Penn State’s University Park.

The artwork celebrates the American Dream and the spirit of “We Are Penn State.” Inspired by the chant’s origins in the football team’s 1946 stand against segregation, the sculpture reflects hope, resilience, and unity. Built with local materials and artisans, it now stands as a symbol of these enduring values. The WE ARE Sculpture apparel collection is officially licensed and available only through WE ARE Sculpture.
