Dance, Music, Theater

The Longfellow Summer Arts Festival brings music, poetry, and community to the East Lawn of the Longfellow House on Sunday afternoons through the summer. All events are free and open to the public.

From maker space workshops to a dance studio, a Food Lab to a performance space, The Foundry’s array of spaces will serve your individual or group needs. Bring your creative spirit!

An Actors' Shakespeare Project and Central Square Theater Youth Co-Production
July 1- July 28 (Four Week Program / No Session July 4)

In this exhibition, join photographer Wendel White on a tour across the original thirteen American colonies as he captures objects held in collections, unpacking the "forensic evidence of Black life.”

Our paid fellowship for youth blurs the line between theater, science, and social justice as you and your peers explore science plays, investigate key questions, and design a public-facing event.

We run classes in Soca dance and choreography for people of all ages and levels.

We partner with local businesses and organizations to sponsor free events in parks across the city.

We offer nature-based games and activities, art, live music, food, and lots of other programs and activities for all ages, year-round.
