Continuing the tradition of eclectic variety SAST has become known for, this year’s selections run the gamut from thought-provoking to absurd, covering topics like love and hate, poultry and philosophy, interviews and confessions. This year’s online SAST will mark the first time in which all of the plays will be from local writers.

Because of the devastating effect Covid 19 has had on our revenue, the Garfield Center for the Arts’ livelihood, now and in the future, is more dependent than ever on the financial success of events like this. Once you have received the link, we ask for your cooperation in restricting its use to only you and your household. The GCA greatly appreciates your consideration and assistance on this.
The Garfield Center for the Arts is located at 210 High Street in the Arts & Entertainment District of historic Chestertown, Maryland. Our mission is to invigorate the cultural life of our community by nurturing, celebrating and supporting arts and artists through performance and education.
Both the theatre, and the foundation that calls it home, are recognized and valued as a unique community center for the arts on the Upper Eastern Shore.
