On February 17, 2024, The United Arc was proud to present our first annual Arc-A-Palooza, a concert benefiting The United Arc and the Individuals we serve, at the Shea Theater in Turners Falls, MA.

With a fantastic lineup, this inaugural event exceeded our expectations in turn out! The Shea Theater’s stage was graced by the debut performance of Alex Casavant, and performances by T.J and the Peepers, Hyfy, Bordertown, and John Waynelovich!

This event was sponsored by Greenfield Savings Bank, Greenfield Cooperative Bank and Renfrew Real Estate – we sincerely appreciate all their continued support!

This event was created as a fundraiser to further strengthen our ability to support our mission of supporting individuals within our community to achieve the universal goals of inclusion, choice, and independence, and also to have fun while achieving these goals.

The United Arc is excited to add Arc-a-Palooza to our list of annual events!

Exciting News for A Happening V: The Bestiary

Cloudgaze and Eggtooth Productions are thrilled to announce that we have received generous grants from the Mass Cultural Council as well as the Community Foundation of Western MA to support our 2025 Immersive Arts Festival, “A Happening V: The Bestiary.”

This festival will transform the Shea Theater into an exploration of theme, hosting installations, music, theatrical performances, and movement pieces, featuring the collective contributions of over 50 local artists. Audiences will experience otherworldly environments and narratives inspired by Aesop's Fables, George Orwell's Animal Farm, newly imagined cautionary tales, and creature myths of all origins.

Thanks to the Mass Cultural Council for their vital support this year.We'd also like to thank the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts for their support in the form of a Flexible Funding grant. We couldn't do this work without you!
