WATERFIRE SHARON PA

More than 50 braziers are anchored in the Shenango River in downtown Sharon during an event. Filled with cedar and pine, they are ablaze at nightfall to create a compelling display. Add to the mix, a perfect blend of pre-recorded music and live musicians performing from WFS boats to create memories that will last forever.

WaterFire is a multi-sensory performance event created by Barnaby Evans in the mid-1990s as WaterFire Providence. It transformed a city, a community and a people, and delivered a public art form that symbolized the city’s effort to make the arts a major player in the revitalization of its downtown.
