New Freedom Fest is an old-time “festival of small town life”. It includes 3 stages of music, dance and entertainment, arts and crafts, animals, food, games, an art tent with pumpkin painting, and much, much more – all centered around the beautiful and historic town of New Freedom, Pennsylvania.
Visit the FEST page for details.
New Freedom Heritage is a 503c not-for-profit organization dedicated to preserving the rich history and culture of New Freedom, Pennsylvania. It was founded on June 15, 2004 by several members of the New Freedom Community Gardeners whose hope was to promote a better future for the community. That is still an important part of the mission today.

– Annual New Freedom Fest More
– Creation of the Freedom Green Community Park More
– Creation of the Heritage Museum of New Freedom and an interactive kiosk

Finito! We’re very happy with our newest community mural! Big thanks to all those involved: New Freedom Heritage for having the idea and footing the bill (yes, we’re thanking ourselves 😉). Thanks to the NFH mural committee (who also painted), Jim Holley, Mary Smith, Sandie Eckenrode, and Sue Myers. Thank you to Susquehannock High School and in particular, art teacher Wesley Myers and the students that worked on the design and painting-Natalia Ramirez Snell, Kameryn Folderauer , Katelyn Cunningham, Rachael Diggs, and Finn Peck. Thank you to all of the additional painters and helpers-Amy Hopkins, Carol Thompson, Jillian Dance, Erin Ashinghurst , Finch Turner, Med Smith, Jack Eckenrode, Karen Phillips, and Candace Schaffer. (Did we leave anyone out?) Thanks to all the community members that drove, walked, and rode by offering words of encouragement, that was so nice! Thanks to Paesanos for the use of their wall, drinks and food. Lastly, thanks to all of the community members that support the New Freedom Fest which brings in much of the funds that support our murals, outdoor movies, our Speaker Series, the Heritage Museum, and the Freedom Green Park. If you’d like to support this project and future projects (we have more murals up our sleeves), you can donate by going to newfreedomheritage.org
