Art

The Yorktown Arts Foundation was established in 1975 and has served our community continuously since that time. The Foundation’s roots began with the Arts Committee of the York County Bicentennial Committee, and the Foundation was established and chartered in November 1975 in order to promote and support the arts for the citizens of York County and the surrounding area.

Since its establishment, the Yorktown Arts Foundation has operated an art center and gallery to effectively execute the goals of the foundation. Initially, the Yorktown Creative Arts Center was operated from a location on Church Street.
