Coming Soon . . . The Mahaiwe’s Second Space

Help the Mahaiwe raise $125,000 for seed funds toward the launch of a new, flexible performance and social space in the renovated firehouse next door to the historic theater. The venue will mean the Mahaiwe is open more days of the year, fulfilling our year-round ambitions. The new space will bring you a wider range of artists at affordable prices, while creating more room for community and educational activities, as well as opportunities for our performing arts and social service partners. You can help ensure that the Mahaiwe’s second space is ready for artists and audiences by taking part in the virtual paddle raise online. (On August 1, 2024 Gala attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a live paddle raise at the dinner held prior to Samara Joy’s show.)
