World Alive! Is Back (And You Won’t Want to Miss It)

We’re thrilled to announce that our World Alive! event is returning for its 10th anniversary! This time, we’re bringing the celebration to the heart of downtown Boston at the Emerson Paramount Center on Saturday, October 25, 2025, starting at 5:00 PM. Since 2015, our annual World Alive! Gala has brought together many of our essential artists with ArtsEmerson’s biggest supporters. This special event raises critical funds that make ArtsEmerson’s mission possible: from developing new theatrical work to bringing global voices to our stages, and deepening community engagement. Your ticket, table, or sponsorship directly supports storytelling that connects us all and keeps Boston’s creativity thriving.

This evening’s celebration will begin with a cocktail gathering and registration at the Paramount Center, followed by dinner, a silent auction, and a special program highlighting the impact of your support. The party continues with a performance by artists and honorees, and wraps up with a post-show party featuring drinks and dancing.

Tickets and tables are on sale now. Don’t wait to secure your spot at one of the most meaningful nights of the year!

Additionally, sponsorship opportunities are available and come with exclusive benefits including premiere seating, guest perks, and recognition throughout the season. Please contact Julia Crane Dempsey at julia.cranedempsey@emerson.edu or 617.824.8363 for more info and support.

If you can’t attend but still want to support the evening, consider making a gift to the ArtsEmerson Annual Fund. Just write “World Alive!” in the gift notes to be recognized in the event program.

Can’t wait to see you all and celebrate together!
