In 2003 the Borough of Schuylkill Haven started planning a five part program to help bring visitors to town and revitalize the community. One of the developments that came from those planning sessions was the vision of Mr. Bert Evans to create an Art Center. Mr. Evans was looking for a way to give back to the community which he had been a part of for so long.
Since opening in 2012, the Walk In Art Center has continued to grow and enrich the lives of people in our surrounding communities.
Educational Programs, Exhibits, Community Events, Art classes, Summer Art Camp programs, and other outreach events are facilitated by the Walk In Art Center to reach into the community.
Visitors come to our First Friday Studio Walk events to speak with the artists, see beautiful artwork, enjoy the entrainment and programs, and spend a pleasant evening with their families, all free of charge.
Our Plans for Future Programs Include:
our financial donation makes a great impact as we move forward and continue to fulfill our mission “To inspire, equip and celebrate the cultural and creative talent of Schuylkill County.” We also welcome volunteers of all ages.
