The acclaimed Westmoreland Arts & Heritage Festival offers the
best in visual and live performing arts, traditional and fine crafts,
cultural heritage activities, humanities, and exciting ethnic foods,
providing something for everyone’s tastes and keeping people coming back
year after year.
An annual summer celebration, the free Festival takes place at Twin
Lakes Park in Greensburg, July 4 through July 7, 2013. Times are from
11am-8pm each day. Annual attendance is over 150,000.
"We're happy to be a part of the celebration at Westmoreland once again. The displays are a hit with the young people, but it's the stories that are sparked by the veterans who stop at the tent that I find so thoughtful." said Jon Baker, president of Time Line Enterprises. "What better way to recognize our nations independence than to remember
all of those who served in order to keep our country free?"
