A Multicultural & Multigenerational Celebration
Presented by Teatro Yerbabruja, SPARK uplifts the stories and artistry that have long shaped Bay Shore. Through dynamic performances, hands-on creativity, and cultural programming, the festival reimagines public space as a place of belonging and exchange. This is a collective offering—by the people, for the people. This program has been made possible thanks to JumpSmart and the Suffolk County Department of Economic Development & Planning.

At Goodbye Summer, our mission is to create a vibrant, inclusive, and joyful celebration that unites the community. We bring together art, music, and shared experiences to mark the end of summer and welcome the new season. We're dedicated to providing a platform for emerging and established artists, makers, and small businesses. Our goal is to foster a fun and engaging environment where everyone, regardless of age or background, can express their creativity, enjoy cultural exchange, and strengthen community bonds. We're a welcoming space for all to celebrate!
