Since 2017, Harrington Center for the Arts has supported the arts in our community through our role as a leader in arts education and performance in Utah County, and through our efforts to reimagine the historic Harrington School, built in 1903, as a permanent home of the arts and artists in downtown American Fork.
The following is a conceptual rendering by the Principle Architects, VCBO, of the renovated Harrington School and addition of the Studio Theater.
The new premiere facility for the arts will serve as a community gathering place for generations to come and creat an enduring legacy because of your involvement.
HCA focuses on balancing the highest level of artistic excellence with reserving opportunities for developing artists and artists with special needs to work alongside acclaimed professionals. Programs produced by HCA celebrate the prolific and diverse talent that is produced by our community.

HCA plans to renovate the historic Harrington School into a center for the arts, including a state-of-the art theater. We are conscious of the growing demographic of Utah County and the needs of arts organizations and individuals. We are committed to growing and adapting our future center to meet the emerging needs of the community. With the renovation and new theater addition, the Harrington School will once again be a shining jewel in Utah Valley.

HCA enlists volunteers to serve on our committees, prepare for events, and plan and facilitate our programming. Our mission and programming has now collectively drawn hundreds of individuals to volunteer. Our projects have created a cohesiveness in purpose amongst our volunteers from a diverse group of people that would otherwise be strangers.
