Every Thursday at 7:30 p.m. we have an informational and volunteer meeting for those interested in hearing what’s happening with TALA.
Interested in volunteering? Interested in joining/heading committees for activities on the grounds and/or in the Asylum? Do you have ideas to present and/or questions you’d like answered? Everyone is welcome to attend!
Call today or email us to find out how you can help!

Despite being designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1990, the hospital has deteriorated to the point where its very survival is threatened. The entire facility and 300 acres were privately purchased in September of 2007 and renamed Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum (TALA) from The Weston State Hospital. With the aid of government grants, private donations, fundraising events, and a team of dedicated local volunteers, we are committed to restoring the TALA to its former grandeur, thus reviving the local economy and preserving an important piece of American history. To help, sign up to be a volunteer or make a donation.
Come help us preserve our area’s greatest treasure.
We need the support of the community to keep the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum standing and for the extensive repair work needed to preserve her.
