Entertainment
DJ Inspector Disco
Groovy tunes will be provided all night by Inspector Disco. Naturally, an Inspector Disco set almost always centers around disco, fused with the many bright genres that surround it: modern disco reworks, familiar 70s classics, 80s dance, italo, hi-NRG, funk, deep house, and sunshine house. You'll be sure to hear powerful purple synths, strong diva vocals, and irresistible conga breaks.The mixes are quite technical but weave songs together without seams for hours of disco magic.
2025 McClennen Award Recipient
Friends of Robbins Farm Park
Arlington Center for the Arts is proud to present the 2025 Alan McClennen Community Arts Award to Friends of Robbins Farm Park (FoRFP) in recognition of the volunteer organization's long history of conducting free cultural programs for people of all ages, including jazz, classical, and popular music concerts, movie nights, art-making activities, and other community programs. Most recently, FoRFP helped to establish Arlington’s first playground prioritizing accessibility through universal design principles that invite children of all abilities to play.
​
The award is named for former Arlington Town Planner Alan McClennen who was a driving force behind the creation of ACA in 1988. It celebrates local citizens who embody our organization’s mission to inspire joy, nurture growth, and build community.
