America250PA: Bells Across PA
As the nation prepares for the United States Semiquincentennial, America250PA is marking the moment with Bells Across PA—a larger-than-life public art experience that turns the state into something you don’t just visit, but explore.
Inspired by Pennsylvania’s role in the nation’s founding—and home to the iconic Liberty Bell—these oversized fiberglass bells have been reimagined by artists from across the Commonwealth, with support from local businesses and community partners. The result is a bold, statewide collection that reflects the creativity and character of the places they call home.
Bells Across PA consists of more than 120 bells that form an art trail stretching across every county in Pennsylvania—an open invitation to take the scenic route and see where curiosity leads.
The majority of bells in the program are already on display, but thanks to the enthusiastic response, additional bells are being completed in early 2026 to bring even more communities into the celebration.
Because bells are located at host sites across the Commonwealth, details such as placement, accessibility, and display status may change. Visitors are encouraged to check each location’s hours and accessibility information before planning their visit.
If you notice any outdated or incorrect information while traveling the trail, please contact INFO@America250PA.org so listings can be updated.
Check out the interactive map below, start planning your trip, and see how many you can discover along the way. Learn more about the Bells Across PA program and artists on America250PA’s website. For any questions or concerns regarding Bells Across PA, please reach out to America250PA.
