Arts, Music, and Theater in the Gettysburg and Adams County Area

For a village of only 8,000 residents, Gettysburg is famously rich in the arts. From the Majestic, Kline, and community theaters, to the local bar scene with its hundreds of local musicians, the bi-annual Gettysburg Rocks festival, the Gettysburg Chamber Orchestra, and the dozens of local art galleries, Adams County is overflowing with creativity and its enjoyment.
