Celebration of the Arts: Saturday, June 10

Category:Events
Help us celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Huntingdon County Arts Center.
A lot has happened since we opened our doors in April 2022.
This free event will feature three types of activities for your enjoyment and inspiration.
  • First, there will be demonstrations of a variety of art forms, including painting, working with fiber, and jewelry making. Other sessions will involve hands-on activities for adults as well as children. For example, children and adults will be able to paint rocks and create other fun items that can be taken home.
  • Second, there will be live music all day. Biscuit Jam, a popular music duo from State College, will be one of our featured acts.
  • And third, visitors will be able to see our current gallery exhibit, Beyond Realism: Freeing Our Imaginations.
The event is free, and tickets are not required.
The Arts Center’s doors will open at 9 a.m., and activities will continue through 4 p.m.
The Arts Center is located at 313 12th Street in Huntingdon.

Vienna Serenade in ConcertSituated on the Danube River in Austria, Vienna was the music capital of Europe for many yearsβ€”a place that most of Europe’s leading classical and romantic era composers called home. Vienna is also a city rich in architecture, with many grand buildings, mansions, gardens, monuments, and parks. Get a taste of Old Vienna on Sunday, June 2 at 2 PM, when Vienna Serenade takes the stage at the Huntingdon County Arts Center. The group consists of 11 professional musicians who recreate the glorious music of the 19th century. Hear waltzes and familiar works by Strauss, Dvorak, Waldteufel, and other famous composers, played by musicians who love this music. Tickets are $20 ($16 for Arts Council members and students) and are available at huntingdoncountyarts.com, at the Arts Center (312 12th Street, Huntingdon) or at the door. There is no charge for children 12 and under. Warning: You may feel like waltzing in the aisles! ... See MoreSee Less
