2026 Celebrate Our Waters

June 29, 2026 By Meg Voorhes

Save the Dates!

September 18-20

Please join the Orleans Pond Coalition for our annual Celebrate Our Waters festivities, scheduled Friday, September 18 through Sunday, September 20.

The theme for this year’s celebration is “our waters as artistic inspiration.” New events aligned with this theme include a photography exhibition, several art gallery tours, free concerts, poetry readings, a presentation of nature photography and more.

These events are in addition to our always popular kayak trip to Sipson Island, sailing on Pleasant Bay, sunset SUP paddle, hike to Pochet Island, yoga on the beach and bird watching on Nauset Marsh. Don’t forget that on Saturday night, September 19, we cap off the celebration with our annual concert and bonfire on Nauset Beach!

Please check back at this website for more information later in the summer. We hope to see you at many of these events during Celebrate Our Waters!
