Hidden Gem: Amazing Things Arts Center [VIDEO]

Discover a Hidden Gem in Framingham that you may have driven by and never known it existed. Or maybe you have not visited this interesting spot in years. So take a little trip with Patch ... we'll show you the way.

Artists flock to this eclectic, unique and intimate venue which has contracted to lease the firehouse for a period of 50 years for $1 per year.

Under the direction of Executive Director Michael Moran, The Amazing Things Arts Center brings together a “diverse community of artists, arts supporters and arts appreciators of all ages, cultures and interests in a supportive and nurturing environment.”

At Amazing Things, patrons are treated to visual arts, music (everything from pop to rock to blues to folk to jazz to cabaret to blues to acapella) theater, comedy and spoken word events. There are also children and family friends events such as the Zing Hoppers and Carrie Rowan and her Merry-go-Music pals!
