Our History
Founded in 1988 by internationally renowned harpist Heidi Lehwalder and other visionary arts lovers of this community, the Fredericksburg Festival of the Arts evolved from a small, world-class chamber music festival into a premier, year-round presenter of the performing arts in the Rappahannock region.
In 2011, the name was changed to the Fredericksburg Festival of the Performing Arts (FFPA) and we added an identifying line that really captures the motivating force of our organization: educating • inspiring • celebrating since 1988.
In 2017, FFPA changed its name to ArtsLIVE! We look forward to delight audiences with an ambitious calendar of musical and theatrical performances of the highest artistic integrity.
Our work is made possible through the efforts of our volunteers and the contributions from community-minded individuals and businesses, and government grants.
This project was supported [in part] by the Virginia Commission for the Arts, which receives support from the Virginia General Assembly and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
