The Onset Bay Association hosts over 30 community events throughout the year – an Easter Egg Hunt, Kayak Poker Run, Summer of Love Music Series, Harvest Moon Festival & Fireworks, Illumination Night, Chalk-Full-Of-Fun Street Painting Festival, Midsummer Shakespeare, Family Beach Day with Rodney The Sandman, and Christmas in the Parks are just some of the events that make our village great for visitors and residents year round. These events offer local artists , and free or inexpensive access to the arts for the public.

Our organization is staffed entirely by volunteers dedicated to supporting a robust and thriving community in the village. We rely on grants and other fundraising for our operational expenses. All proceeds from OBA fundraisers go directly back to the community in the form of public events or beautification projects.

We are always looking for volunteers, sponsorships, memberships and donations that will be used to build and sustain our roster of events!

Our Mission: Investing in and enhancing Onset’s community through events and engagement year-round.
Our Vision: Inspiring our community to create a culturally vibrant village to live, work and thrive.
