Laurel Arts and You.

Laurel Arts will be closed to the general public Monday, July 19 – Sunday, July 25.

About Us
For over three decades, Laurel Arts has strived to fulfill its mission of providing quality arts opportunities for the Laurel Highlands. Each year we serve over 40,000 participants through a diverse schedule of programs that includes exhibitions, classes, Somerfest, dance classes, various performances, and special events.

Since 1975, Laurel Arts’ membership has grown to include over 700 individuals, families, and businesses.



Laurel Arts maintains offices, galleries, and workshops in a historic farmhouse, The Philip Dressler Center for the Arts.

In the fall of 2009, we opened the Education and Dance Center, located in the Georgian Place Suites. Our new facility houses our dance programs, Studio Kids Preschool, expanded performing and visual arts classes, and a retail shop selling dance supplies.

In November 2009, The Guild of American Papercutters established its National Museum in partnership with Laurel Arts at the home of the Philip Dressler Center for the Arts.  The gallery is located on the second floor of the Dressler Center and is the first American museum devoted to the art form of papercutting.
