Holiday and winter hours at all our facilities

Welcome, and bring your houseguests!

The Heritage Discovery Center/Johnstown Children’s Museum and Johnstown Flood Museum begin a winter operating schedule as of Dec. 1: open Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 10:00 am-5:00 pm, Sunday noon-5:00 pm; and closed Tuesday and Wednesday. (Dec. 24-25 and Dec. 31-Jan. 1 fall on Tuesday-Wednesday; therefore, there are no extra closing days due to Christmas or New Year.) Special events calendar is here.

Peoples Natural Gas Park, which is the site for Discover Downtown Johnstown Partnership’s Christmas Tree and Village this year, is open noon-11:00 pm. Lighting time for the tree and the Stone Bridge is 5:00-11:00 pm, and the installation will be up through January 8, 2026. More tree-related schedule info is here.

Help make the races happen.

We are still looking for volunteers – if you have the time, we have the job for you! Volunteers are needed for everything from handing out race packets before the race, medals and water to runners as they cross the finish line, and serving pizza.

Volunteers are what make this event a success! Please let us know if you can help using the form below.

We are Heritage Johnstown!

After months of thought, deliberation and planning, the Johnstown Area Heritage Association (JAHA) is thrilled to be entering a new year with a new name -- Heritage Johnstown -- as our Annual Fund drive kicks off.
