Welcome to Mashpee Pops!
Dear Friends of Mashpee Pops,
It is with a heavy heart and great sorrow that we share with you the sad news that our friend Jim Vacarro passed away suddenly on March 15, 2020.
He was perhaps best known for his extensive involvement in civic, community and philanthropic affairs. His pride and joy was Mashpee Night at the Pops, involved from its inception, he became its President and later its executive producer, and help grow the event to become, for 20 years, the biggest night of the year in Mashpee. At the final Pops event in 2011, his colleagues honored him by being Guest Conductor of the Symphony which he described as being the longest two minutes of his life.

About the Pops
For 20 years Mashpee Commons was the gracious host to Mashpee Night at the Pops.
Our 2011 event was the last time this venue was available, and so we bid a fond farewell
to all our friends at Mashpee Commons and thank all concerned for their 20 years of
hospitality.
Mashpee Pops will stay active, sponsoring and producing a variety of other events celebrating and showcasing the arts in Mashpee and promoting a strong sense of community spirit. What else this will include, is still a work in progress….stay tuned!
