The Trust also offers counseling for event presentation, consultation for groups using the Palace, and collaborative promotion opportunities.
DEVELOPING AN HISTORIC/CULTURAL/ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT-The Trust's strong partnerships with city, county & state government have created a vibrant district in central Westmoreland County anchored by the Palace Theatre, Seton Hill University's $21M Performing Arts Center a block away, and the historic Greensburg Train Station.

Upscale restaurants in downtown Greensburg provide further incentive to theater-goers to enjoy a complete experience downtown.
