Our Mission:  Present exciting live arts events. Give a platform to diverse voices. Showcase depth and breadth in American arts and culture. Entertain, enrich, educate and unite. Introduce people to new ways of seeing, thinking and being. Change lives for the better.

​

Our chief event is a biennial performing arts festival in Guilford, Connecticut (the next one is scheduled for August 2025). We also present other events throughout the year, from open-mic nights to theatrical and storytelling performances to live concerts—typically in collaboration with other arts and cultural organizations. We're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created in 2017 as the Guilford Performing Arts Festival to present high-quality live arts, spotlight diverse voices and artistic genres, commission and premiere new work, offer hands-on performing arts education and experience, and use the arts to inspire and empower communities of need.
