About the Goodwill Arches
The Goodwill Arches made their campus debut in 2007 with 10 arches, containing more than 4,000 blue and gold lights, lining the sidewalk from Blackington Hall to the Mountain Cat Statue.  In 2010, the Arches were moved to their permanent home at University Square, where 25 Goodwill Arches illuminate the sidewalks leading to the gazebo.


This event is part of Pitt-Johnstown's signature program, "Pitt-Johnstown @ Your Service."
