Hello Westport Friends,

Welcome back to The Westport Impact! We’re continuing our journey of highlighting the incredible people and organizations that make our town so vibrant. Today, we’re shining a spotlight on a beloved local treasure: the Westport Country Playhouse.

For those of you who appreciate the magic of live theater, you know the Playhouse is more than just a building; it’s a cultural cornerstone. It’s where stories come to life, where emotions are shared, and where our community gathers to experience the power of performance. And like any cherished institution, it relies on our support to keep its doors open and its stage lit.

That’s why we’re so excited to share details about the Westport Country Playhouse 2nd Annual Golf Fundraiser! Mark your calendars for July 21st, 2025, because this is an event you won’t want to miss.



If you’re a golf enthusiast, you’ll love the opportunity to hit the links for a fantastic cause. And even if you’re not a pro, the day promises to be filled with fun, camaraderie, and the satisfaction of knowing you’re making a real difference.

Last year’s fundraiser was a resounding success, and this year’s event is shaping up to be just as spectacular. You can get an idea of what to expect by checking out the details from last year’s event here: https://www.westportplayhouse.org/galas-and-fundraisers/

The Playhouse team has put together a wonderful day of golf, networking, and support, all to ensure that our community continues to enjoy the rich theatrical experiences they provide.

I’ve always felt that the arts are an essential part of what makes a community thrive. They inspire us, challenge us, and bring us together. By participating in this golf fundraiser, you’re not just supporting a theater; you’re investing in the cultural heart of Westport.

Let’s rally together and show our support for the Westport Country Playhouse! Whether you’re swinging a club or simply spreading the word, your contribution will make a significant impact.
