The Milford Arts Council is proud to present a virtual experience called the MAC-a-thon, featuring hours of music, theatre, art, dance, arts activities, and more in a 21st century marathon variety show event. With a choice of two online viewing dates of February 20th at 4pm or February 21st at noon, this event is a first-of-its-kind fundraiser for the MAC.
Dozens of performing artists from up and down the coast generously donated their talent to this show with original work curated especially for the event. Bin 100, Founder's House, and Wines & More are providing curbside meal and cocktail kits to and the audience will get to follow along with a mixologist and wine connoisseur to turn the show into a full experience.
The virtual experience will allow viewers to experience the “best of everything inside the heart of the arts.” The show will shine a spotlight on the Milford Arts Council MAC LiVe music series, cabaret & Bway-style Nite Spot Night series, Eastbound Theatre company, New England Guitar Society, Open Mic performers, visual artists and photographers, Written Word writer community, Milford CT students, summer theatre campers, arts enrichment instructors, and more!

Paige Miglio, Executive Director explains, “We’ve missed our audiences, live performances, serving our community, and doing what we do best. So, we thought that maybe we could all connect virtually in an online experience featuring everything we do. We pulled together as one big team to create an event to bring a little joy to everyone in the dead of a pandemic winter.
In order to view the show, patrons may purchase donation tickets to receive a unique link code. The ticket options vary and include different incentive levels. Since this is a fundraiser, Milford Arts Council hopes the community will open their hearts and give generously. The show is a marathon, so it will be broken into two parts with an intermission. A program schedule will be sent with the link code so the audience will get a preview of what to expect.
