Due to an interior water leak on 1/23/25 caused by extreme cold, the Johnstown Flood Museum ONLY is temporarily closed. Thankfully, nothing of historic significance was affected. The water remediation team concluded their work, which leaves repainting, floor refinishing, and replacement of carpet and soundproofing materials. We are currently waiting for insurance adjustors and approval of quotes, a process we cannot control. In the meantime, we apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work to remediate and repair our beloved flagship museum.

In the meantime, we are pleased to present Relic Tales of the Johnstown Floods at the Heritage Discovery Center, which is unaffected and operating normal business hours. This new temporary exhibition includes more than 200 artifacts and photographs, many of which have never been on display before, from the Johnstown flood of 1889 (as well as 1936 and 1977).  Welcome!

Pure Prairie League, Andy Frasco & the U.N., 3 more artists added to AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival (Aug. 3-4)

Posted: March 6, 2018 3:52 pm

On Wednesday of this week, five additional artists were added to the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival, which is coming up August 3-4, 2018. They are country rockers Pure Prairie League; the “controlled chaos” of Andy Frasco & the U.N. (pictured); the Nashville-based, ultra-eclectic Amelia Eisenhauer & the Peruvian Farm Girls; folk rocker Paul Luc of Pittsburgh; and local favorites Jazz In Your Face Big Band feat. Denise Canby.

Read all about them and the other currently-announced artists at floodcitymusic.com, and remember, early-bird pricing on 2-day passes is good through April 15 only (except for JAHA members, for whom early-bird pricing doesn’t expire!). For the best deal, locals should go to the 1st Summit Arena at the Cambria County War Memorial Box Office and buy your passes in person.
