About this user
The mission of the Massachusetts International Festival of the Arts -MIFA/Victory Theatre is to present the finest examples of contemporary practice in opera, theatre, dance, music, film, visual arts and literature. Founded in 1993 and headquartered since 2005 in Holyoke, Massachusetts, MIFA originated through the efforts of a group of community leaders to establish a world-class cultural entity capable of nurturing and developing the region's assets. MIFA's history of cultural programming adheres to its founding vision as a showcase for worldwide innovative and directional arts and a vehicle for community reclamation and historical and architectural preservation.
To fulfill its mission, MIFA presents an annual festival of the performing, visual and literary arts and spearheads community development projects, focusing recently on Holyoke, specifically the restoration and reopening of the historic Victory Theatre
in downtown Holyoke.
