Description
The Johnstown Area Heritage Association is a non-profit, membership-based organization that exists to preserve and showcase Johnstown's nationally significant stories to the nation. To do that, we provide high-quality educational, cultural and recreational experiences in the area's unique historic settings.
We operate three museums, the Johnstown Flood Museum, the Wagner-Ritter House & Garden, and the Frank & Sylvia Pasquerilla Heritage Discovery Center. A Children's Discovery Museum is under construction and will open in 2007. JAHA supports the local economy by bringing positive national attention and visitors to our area.
JAHA is dedicated to preserving and interpreting the nationally significant historic heritage of the Greater Johnstown Area through its museum facilities, historical collection, and education programs. JAHA operates as a clearinghouse and catalyst for revitalization efforts based on cultural tourism and historic preservation.
