About the Arts Council

The Huntingdon County Arts Council is dedicated to providing art and cultural opportunities in Huntingdon County. Our programs are designed to provide enjoyment and enrichment as well as educational and professional opportunities to the general public, students, amateur, and professional artists.

 

The Arts Council receives part of its revenue from grants, local governments, and the generosity of its members. Folk College, as many other Arts Council programs, relies on the dedication and hard work of many volunteers from within the organization and the folk music community in central Pennsylvania. We thank all contributors for their support.

 

The Huntingdon County Arts Council receives state arts funding support through a grant from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.

 

Folk College Support

Folk College is a project of Simple Gifts and the Huntingdon County Arts Council. The Huntingdon County Arts Council is supported by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency, through its regional funding partnership, Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (PPA). State Government funding comes through the annual appropriation by Pennsylvania's General Assembly and from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
