Instrument Exchange

Here is an opportunity to sell the instruments you’re ready to part with.

The Huntingdon County Arts Council will act as the sales agent. The Arts Council will give the seller 90% of the sales price (so price accordingly), and we have to charge 6% sales tax to the buyer. 

There will be a form to fill out when you arrive for any instruments you want to sell.
