Lubber Run Amphitheater

Lubber Run Amphitheater FREE performances running from June into August. Fridays and Saturdays at 8, Sundays at 11. "All the world's a stage, and Lubber Run is ours."

Arlington's cherished outdoor performance space will once again play host to great shows this summer. The Lubber Run Amphitheater Foundation was created in 2011 with donations to ensure that the amphitheater would continue to exist. We work alongside Arlington County Cultural Affairs to funding various activities and shows over the years. This year, 2022, we invested in the following:

-A grant to

the 3 theater groups to pay for the royalty fees for to be
able to perform Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat
-The design and printing of the Guitar Fan give-away
-The ice cream social opening night for Joseph and the Amazing
Technicolor Dream Coat (early August)

From 2011-2021 LRAF funded:

-The 2019 50th year celebration
-A $100 appreciation stipend gifted to all 25 performers from 2019 to assist them during the COVID shut-down of 2020
-Multiple performances, specifically shows for kids, and co-funded various evening performances
-Many Ice cream socials
-The children's clay art workshop after the LRAF-funded animal show including free pizza
-Guitar/schedule fans most years since 2011

to ALL who have and continue to contribute!
