OUR MISSION

The mission of the Long’s Park Amphitheater Foundation is to curate music and art in Long’s Park for the benefit of the public, thereby enriching the quality of life in Lancaster County.

This mission is expressed through the presentation of the Summer Music Series at the Long’s Park Amphitheater and the annual Labor Day Weekend Long’s Park Art Festival. Our Foundation’s curated programming at Long’s Park is made possible solely through the philanthropy of community sponsors, donors, and members as well as by revenues generated by the Art Festival. We work closely with our partners at the City of Lancaster to ensure our events are clean, safe, and available to all. To see a list of our 2025 sponsors, please visit the home page

The Long’s Park Amphitheater Foundation is a 501 c.3, non-profit organization.
