Arts in Education

The Huntingdon County Arts Council has a strong commitment to arts-in-education initiatives. We have arranged for extensive residency activities as well as daylong, individual workshops and performances in public schools and other educational settings. Some of our adult workshops are eligible to receive Act 48 credits for PA teachers.

Public Art:

Since 2003 the Huntingdon County Arts Council has played an active role in public art and art in public spaces in Huntingdon County. The HCAC encourages inquiries from communities with an interest in engaging in a public art project. We have successfully secured grant funding in the past and have completed a number of mural projects in Huntingdon Borough and serve in an advisory capacity to the borough of Huntingdon. Check out our Public Art page.

Festivals:

In our effort to bring art and cultural opportunities to Huntingdon County, the Huntingdon County Arts Council runs three festivals–two music festivals and a fiber festival: Folk College, Greenwood Furnace Folk Gathering, and Fiber ArtsFest. Check out the festivals.

Concerts:

We have a regular schedule of concerts at the Huntingdon County Arts Center, featuring classical, folk, ragtime, and other music.
Check out the Arts Calendar Page to view the latest concert schedule OR to purchase tickets go to the Register, Tickets, and Shop page.
