Sunday Afternoons at The Library Concerts

The Centre County Library Museum

Concerts are held on selected Sundays in an intimate setting at the Centre County Library Museum, a Georgian home (ca. 1815) located on the northwest corner of Allegheny and Howard streets in Bellefonte. Performances begin at 2:30 p.m.  Concerts are funded through a Local Government Grant jointly funded by the Borough of Bellefonte and The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts , a state agency.  State government funding comes through an annual appropriation by Pennsylvania's General Assembly and from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.  Applications for Local Government Grants are administered by BHCA.

Library Concerts are arranged by Diane Gold Toulson.
