BHCA is a nonprofit, volunteer organization working to provide diverse cultural and arts programming to residents of Bellefonte, Pennsylvania and surrounding communities at no charge.  BHCA also strives to increase awareness of the significance of Bellefonte's cultural heritage, as reflected in rich Victorian architecture, and of the value of its preservation.

BHCA receives state arts funding support through a grant from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Our grant is administered by Centre Foundation.
