In Happy Valley, everyone talks about sports…

…but the arts here? Quietly world-class.

This moment at the Palmer Museum of Art, with James Lyon on violin and Carol Lyon on cello, isn’t something you’ll see every day.

It’s not a performance.
It’s a collaboration.

A snapshot of the incredible talent that lives right here in State College; where world-class music and world-class art exist side by side, even if you don’t always notice it.

🎨 Go explore the Palmer.
🎶 Come experience the Pennsylvania Chamber Orchestra live on May 3.

We’re SO lucky to have so many dynamic offerings right here in Happy Valley.
