The entrance hall displays many photos: The first graduating class of Blairsville High School 1891, Class of 1898, Class of 1918, Class of 1922, along with several other class photos.

A painting of Commodore Jesse Duncan Elliot who commanded the “Niagra” at the Battle of Lake Erie hangs in the hall.

A “frog” of glass sits on the floor. This is a piece of discarded glass from the Columbia Glass Works which was located in South Blairsville near the Conemaugh River. Several glass companies operated in that area until the flood of 1936 wiped them out.

Another mark of Blairsville history is the Mile marker for the Huntington, Cambria, Indiana Turnpike (1815 – 1820)
