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.
