RESCHEDULED - Illuminate: Lighting the Way for the Arts

This event was rescheduled from June 21.

Illuminate: Lighting the Way for the Arts
Presented by the Fine Arts Center Foundation Board

Step into the light and join us for ILLUMINATE, an extraordinary evening dedicated to celebrating the arts and the enduring light they bring to our community. Hosted by the Fine Arts Center Foundation Board of Directors, this vibrant gathering shines a spotlight on the Fine Arts Center’s rich legacy — and the bright, inspiring future we are building together.

Throughout the night, you’ll experience a lively blend of creativity, connection, and discovery. Sip craft cocktails, savor delicious hors d’oeuvres, and enjoy the sounds of live music filling the spaces of our iconic venue. A silent auction featuring one-of-a-kind pieces from local artists and makers offers you a chance to take home a meaningful work of art while supporting creativity in our community.

Midway through the evening, we’ll gather for brief remarks as we honor the Fine Arts Center’s impact and invite guests to continue exploring all the FAC has to offer — from our galleries and performance spaces to the creative studios where imagination thrives.

Performing Arts
Encounter pop-up performances that celebrate the energy, creativity, and storytelling spirit of our acclaimed theatre company.

Visual Arts

Creative Arts

ILLUMINATE is a celebration and so much more — it’s a philanthropic event with purpose. All proceeds raised from the evening directly benefit the Fine Arts Center’s dynamic programming across our museum, theatre company, and Bemis School of Art. Your support has a profound and lasting impact, helping us ignite new ideas, empower artists and audiences, and bring transformative arts experiences to our community for generations to come.
