The Chincoteague Island Arts Organization is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, incorporated in Virginia in December 2011. CIAO was created to save, utilize and maintain the vintage Island Theatre as a performing arts center for Chincoteague, offering a unique downtown venue for films and events.
Now beautifully restored, the Island Theatre Performing Arts Center (formerly the Island Roxy), offers recent and classic films as well as concerts, plays and all kinds of other entertainment. The theater aims to please the local community and visitors alike with a diverse selection of exciting events!
THE SUMMER VIBE FESTIVAL ON JULY 11TH
Join us for the first annual Summer Vibe Festival on Saturday, July 11 from 11AM–5PM at Robert Reed Waterfront Park—a vibrant, feel-good celebration of community, creativity and coastal energy.
This all-day event in Robert Reed Downtown Park on Chincoteague brings together the heart of the town with live music, local art vendors, and immersive experiences designed to inspire connection and good vibes all around. Whether you’re here to shop, dance, discover new talent, or just soak in the summer atmosphere, there’s something for everyone.
More than just a festival, Summer Vibe is about bringing the community together with purpose—raising awareness and support for the Island Theatre and the Chincoteague Island Arts Organization (CIAO), helping fuel future events, local art, and cultural growth on the island. Come out, catch the vibe, and be part of something special from the very beginning.
