The mission of Sweetwater Center For The Arts is to enrich the lives of children and adults in the communities in the Sewickley area by providing excellence in arts education and cultural programming.

Sewickley is a picturesque suburb of 4,000 people located northwest of Pittsburgh along the Ohio River. It’s believed that Sewickley’s name was derived from a Native American word meaning “sweet water.” This attractive little town has even been featured in major motion pictures including the 1995 film “Houseguest” and the 2014 film “Foxcatcher.”

Sweetwater began as a grass-roots effort developed by community residents in the 1970s to offer a small number of classes in the fine arts and crafts for residents in the area west of Pittsburgh. In 1987, Sweetwater moved from a small Victorian house into its current space, located in the old Sewickley Post Office building, where it is uniquely situated on the periphery of Pittsburgh with easy access to many areas that do not traditionally have access to quality cultural programs.
