On September 6, 2026, WE CAN and Cotuit Center for the Arts will come together at the Cape Cod Melody Tent for an inspiring evening celebrating two meaningful milestones: WE CAN’s 25th anniversary and Cotuit Center for the Arts’ 30th anniversary!

Women ROCK! The Tent brings one of Cotuit Center for the Arts’ most beloved productions to one of Cape Cod’s most iconic stages. Conceived and produced by Michael Dunford and featuring an all-local lineup of extraordinary performers, this high-energy concert celebrates creativity, resilience, and community, values that are at the heart of both organizations.

For 25 years, WE CAN has been a place where women thrive, providing free and confidential support that empowers women across Cape Cod. This event is both a celebration of music and artistry and a tribute to the women, partners, and community members who have made this work possible.

Sponsorship opportunities are available now, offering a meaningful opportunity for local businesses to align with two trusted, mission-driven nonprofit organizations while gaining visibility with a broad and engaged Cape Cod audience.

Individual tickets go on sale in March

We invite you to join us in celebrating 25 years of WE CAN, 30 years of Cotuit Center for the Arts, and the women who truly ROCK!

We look forward to celebrating with you!
