The 2008 Arts in the Mountains : Summer Music and Arts Festival at Saint Francis University in Loretto, PA is a one of a kind, world-class educational/performance event. Since 2004, the focus of this program has been to engage students as well as adult learners from all over the United States in a culturally rich, all-inclusive music program.

Our programs are unique because they are based on the premise of enabling participants to learn, engage and perform with some of the world's top performer/educators in the field of music regardless of prior musical experience.

Our philosophy is that students learn best in a completely hands-on, relaxed, safe environment without the pressure of being perfect. Experienced musicians as well as beginners are warmly welcomed. We even provide instruments. While the educational programs are built for adults over 18, the concerts are appropriate for the whole family.
