Augusta Heritage Center in Elkins
Augusta was the historic name of West Virginia in its period of earliest settlement. In 1973, "Augusta Heritage Arts Workshops" was the name given to a summer program that was set up to help preserve the Appalachian heritage and traditions. In 1981, Davis & Elkins College became the sponsor of the program, renamed Augusta Heritage Center. In the 26 years since then, it has flourished and grown. Augusta Heritage Center is known nationally and internationally for its activities relating to traditional folklife and folk arts of many regions and cultures.
Augusta Heritage Center is best known for intensive week-long workshops that attract more than 2,000 participants annually. Thousands more attend our public concerts, dances, and festivals.
