Calendar of Events

Nestled between the Continental Divide and the shadows of Seneca Rocks, the unique mountain landscape found in the Randolph County region, are home to a wealth of natural wonders like the Monongahela National Forest, Dolly Sods Scenic Area, Spruce Knob and Blackwater Falls State Park. Skiers looking for thrills race down thousand-foot vertical slopes on three of the finest ski resorts in the country. Specially constructed trails let mountain bikers have “epic rides.” Hikers not intimidated by great mountain landscapes can get out into the backcountry as far as they like. Tons of outdoor recreational activities are just a short drive from Elkins. Few places offer a better way to experience nature firsthand and revel in the solitude of the ancient Appalachian mountains.

Elkins has the distinction of being one of the 100 Best Art Towns in America. Enjoying arts and culture in Elkins and the Randolph County area can range from performances and exhibits at the Randolph County Community Arts Center to activities at the Augusta Heritage Center nationally known for activities related to traditional folklife and folk arts. The Center is best known for its week long workshops that attract more than 2,000 participants from all over the US.
