The Participating Artists of the Turkeyfoot Highlands exists to advocate, support, preserve, promote and enhance the artists and art of the southern Laurel Highlands within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and surrounding areas. We seek to be inclusive and provide marketing, event and sales venues, education, professional development opportunities, information, and other resources as well as value-adding services to our members to ensure their, and the indigenous arts and crafts heritage of the area, ongoing growth and success.
Our History
PATH was conceived independently in the hearts of several local artists over a period of years and collaboratively birthed in 2006. Although PATH is a new entity, it is comprised of artists, craftsmen, students, supporters, and suppliers with long-term commitment to their craft, our beautiful Laurel Highlands region, and/or the strong arts and crafts heritage inherent here and in the Commonwealth.
Robert Yonke commissioned by the IBMA!
Dear Friends,
As some of you know, In 2007, Bob was commissioned by the International Bluegrass Music Association to provide artwork for their 2008 World of Bluegrass. If you're not familiar with this event, the World of Bluegrass is the bluegrass music industry's key annual gathering and includes the International Bluegrass Music Awards Show at the Grand Ole Opry coupled with a week of meetings and music. Since Bob loves bluegrass music, he was very pleased to work on this project. We thought you might like to see the work and have enclosed this image from the IBMA. We think they did a great job with the graphics and are happy to be able to share this with you. You'll see more of this graphic over the year if you are involved with the event. Also, we look forward to exhibiting at Fan Fest again this year and hope to see some of you there!
