Pure Imagination – A Firehouse Gala

Step into a world of Pure Imagination at the Firehouse Center for the Arts Annual Gala, a glamorous evening inspired by the whimsical world of Willy Wonka. This enchanted fundraiser, held on September 11, 2026, invites guests to experience a night of “golden possibilities,” featuring elegant catering, live performances, interactive games, and a thrilling auction. Every ticket purchased and auction bid placed directly funds the historic art center’s education programming for all ages.

The mission of the Firehouse Center for the Arts is to enrich and entertain all segments of the Greater Newburyport region by providing high-quality visual and performing arts. Acting as a cultural anchor on the North Shore, the Firehouse fosters community connection both near and far. It serves as a vital creative hub through professional theatrical seasons, diverse concerts, youth education, and accessible senior programming.
