Our Story
Sparkle on Stage, Inc. is a non-profit organization composed of community members who are dedicated to serving the arts. Our mission is to Enrich, Empower, and Entertain our community by providing a home for the cultural arts.
We opened on Freeport's Nautical Mile in June 2022 and have already become a destination for new and upcoming artists as well as established performers, painters, and other creative people. By partnering with our neighbors on the Mile, we have made an impact on the economic, social, and cultural aspects of our community. In addition, we provide a vital forum for community engagement.
And this is just the beginning ...
Entertain
As a community cultural arts center, Sparkle on Stage provides quality musical, cultural, and informational programming that celebrates the diversity of our Long Island community.
As a non-profit, we provide a venue that accommodates a variety of productions and exhibits at reasonable rates for the performer and the audience.
Enrich
Sparkle on Stage's cultural arts center is a safe and stimulating place to channel the energy and creativity that exists in our communities.
We provide an outlet for voices in the community that may otherwise go unheard. Our advocacy for the arts makes us a vital and creative resource for our residents. From our performances to our gallery walls to our furnishings, a visit to our center is an enriching experience.
Empower
Sparkle on Stage offers a place to learn about the arts. Children and adults can participate in mentoring programs, career-building activities and gain experiences in the arts.
Our center offers training in backstage and back-office positions, including lighting, audio-visual, costume and set design, stage crew, ticket sales, bookkeeping, marketing and publicity.
