Get advance tickets now for $10 at foofest.as220.org, $15 at the gate on the day of, or…..$25 (also online)!
Why a $25 ticket? 2018 marks 25 years since AS220 opened our Empire Street complex.
No other single building in downtown Providence contains as much varied and dynamic arts and cultural programming, with programs spanning music and performance, theatre, dance, visual art, youth arts education and affordable housing.
However, this humble building requires long overdue upgrades, and AS220’s programming needs sustainable support to continue meeting the needs of Rhode Island’s creative community.
We have now embarked on a $5 million dollar ALL ACCESS fundraising campaign to make comprehensive improvements to the building’s entire ecosystem – you can read about that here: as220.org/campaign.
With your purchase of a $25 ticket in advance, you’ll not only be supporting out regular yearly Foo Fest fundraiser – you’ll be supporting our ALL ACCESS campaign for Empire Street too!
