Foreland Presents

Foreland Presents is our intermittent project involving community events that have included public exhibitions, performances, workshops, artist fellowships, and youth sponsorships. Please join our mailing list to learn more. Foreland Presents programs are based on seasonality, demand, and capacity.

We rent our waterfront to partners for their events, and sometimes host those of our own.

Foreland is a for-profit business that happens to be serious about having a good time.
