HARRISON COUNTY, WV — The Cultural Foundation of Harrison County is inviting the community to a night of intrigue, competition, and support for the arts at its first ever fundraising event, FRAMED: A WV Art Heist, on Saturday, March 21, 2026.  at the Almost Heaven Barn in Shinnston, WV.

This one-of-a-kind evening will bring a lively, immersive experience. Guests will have the opportunity to select from a curated collection of artwork, experiences, and artisan items—but there’s a twist: pieces may be stolen by other attendees before the night is through. Add in some unexpected twists, suspenseful gameplay, and plenty of laughter, and you have an unforgettable evening in support of Harrison County’s community arts projects, student scholarships,  and free events.

“Our inaugural WV Art Heist will be like nothing you have ever experienced,” said Jason A Young, Board Chair of the Cultural Foundation of Harrison County. “We’re mixing all the fun of a great party with delightful food and drink, with the intrigue of an interactive game night, and the energy of a live concert to create a truly unforgettable evening.”

In addition to the signature art caper, guests will enjoy locally made appetizers, specialty cocktails, and a beautifully styled atmosphere at Almost Heaven Barn, one of North Central West Virginia’s most picturesque venues.
