SUPPORT THE ARTS
With your help, we are enriching the Hollidaysburg Area with arts & culture through music events and arts education.
How It All Began…
The HAAC started in 1998. At a public town hall meeting, the group identified a need to establish an organization to bring art and music to the Hollidaysburg area. It was identified that there was a need for more arts activities for young and young at heart.
The idea was embraced by many who volunteered time and talents to the group we are today. Concerts, art camps, adult workshops and other arts program began to planned. Our efforts were noticed by the public and gathered support from many.

In summer 2018, Deb Bunnel and her husband Roger took time to start restoring this beautiful mural. The wall was cleaned and given a new protective coat!
