Greensburg is a major cultural center in Western Pennsylvania. It is the home of the [[Westmoreland Museum of American Art]], which specializes in American Art circa 1750–1950. In the heart of the city's emerging cultural district, the Palace Theatre is the site for various performances throughout the year. Additionally, it is the home of the Westmoreland Symphony Orchestra and the Summer Sounds Concert Series at the Robertshaw Amphitheater in St. Clair Park.

The Westmoreland Cultural Trust has played a major role in the revitalization of Downtown Greensburg in recent years. Its accomplishments include the renovation of the Palace Theatre and the Train Station. They are also responsible for renovating several commercial buildings in the downtown area. [[Stage Right!]] also contributes to the region's culture, offering classes in musical theatre for young people and staging professional productions at the Palace Theater and Greensburg Garden and Civic Center. Greensburg Civic Theatre, one of the few long-established volunteer-based community theatre organizations in Westmoreland County, has been presenting both adult and children's theater productions for over 60 years. Founded in 1951, they are the resident theatre company at the Greensburg Garden and Civic Center. The  Performance Arts Center of Seton Hill University opened its doors to the public in September 2009. This multimillion-dollar complex, located in the city's Cultural District, is expected to serve as an additional catalyst for the future growth of the downtown core.

A hands-on [[Science museum#Science center|science center]], to feature a wide range of interactive exhibits, was proposed for the former Mellon Bank building downtown. However, it has since been put on hold indefinitely. The Discovery & Interactive Science Center (DISC) would have been a regional attraction for Westmoreland, Fayette, Indiana, Somerset, and Bedford counties. It would have also been the only interactive science center between the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh and the Harsco Science Center in Harrisburg.

The World Conference Center for [[Church of Jesus Christ (Bickertonite)|The Church of Jesus Christ]] is located west of Greensburg on [[PA Route 136]]. It is the third-largest branch of the [[Latter Day Saint movement]]. The national headquarters of the [[Kappa Delta Rho]] fraternity is in Greensburg. The [[Saint Emma Monastery]] (founded 1931) is a Catholic retreat house and monastery for the Sisters of Saint Benedict located in Greensburg.
