Route 15: Byway of the Arts

The creative culture of Pennsylvania is evident in abundance along the Byway of the Arts. This scenic 190-mile drive bisects the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; along the way, you can visit art galleries, craft barns, and working artisan enclaves that present our take on the Appalachian aesthetic. Historic sites, charming villages, public art, and cultural opportunities make discovering this authentically American region a snap.

As you pass lovely mountain vistas and pristine farmland, you'll find plenty of places to stop. Be sure to visit the Magpie, a gallery shop in Lewisburg that offers an array of contemporary arts and crafts. And if you love American music, stop by the Orthey Autoharps Factory, in Newport. It's where the Carter Family's autoharps came from!
