The Cultural Center of Harghita County is the successor of the House of Folklore Creation of Harghita County, which was established in 1968. At present the Center is an institution of Harghita County Council, and functions as a separate legal entity. It is a scientific and methodological center of the cultural activities in Harghita county. The Institute helps the local governments’ cultural work, as well as the local society’s various cultural and public organisations. Its task is to collect, to search, to preserve and to promote the County’s cultural values and traditions.

Following a civil initiative, the Csíki Játékszín is created with local government support in 1998. From the spring of 2018, the actor and director Szilárd Kányádi becomes the director of the theater.  The main goal of the Csíki Játékszín Theater is to satisfy and expand the cultural needs of the city and the region. During a season, he presents 5-6 premieres in the big hall and 4-6 in the studio, but he also invites numerous shows both from the country and abroad.  Our theater tries to enrich the cultural offer addressed to people between 3-18 years with a repertoire for children and young people. 

The Harghita County Gallery opened on October 2012. The exhibition place of the county government intends to be the home of the arts, including literature, theater, music and fine art. The primary objective of the County Gallery is to increase the social esteem of the Hungarian artists in Transylvania. This is to be achieved by the Harghita County Council through the promotion and presentation of their works. The primary purpose of the gallery is to promote the Székely region's creators trough exhibitions and quality events. The gallery was designed by András Alpár and Barna Lőrincz.
