Part of the Harstad Fine Arts Series mission is to provide opportunities to our community that may not be able to attend the regular concert season. Outreach events are hosted by our guest artists and have reached thousands of people.
If you and your organization would be interested in an artist or ensemble visiting and providing a program or experience, please contact us: info@harstadarts.com.
