For 40 years, Penn State Wilkes-Barre has hosted thousands of community members for events put on by Arts at Hayfield, a nonprofit organization that supports the arts in the community and on campus. That tradition continues with the 38th annual Summer Arts Festival from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 18, featuring more than 120 artisans, performers, crafters and food vendors.
Penn State Wilkes-Barre will host Spend a Summer Day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Aug. 7. The event is an open house where interested students can visit the campus and learn about the opportunities available to them close to home.
