This nightly event is run by The Key West Cultural Preservation Society, Inc. which was established in 1984. It is a not for profit corporation established to support the arts. The main function of the organization is to manage Sunset Celebration, Key West’s premiere nightly arts festival. The CPS leases Mallory Square Dock from the City of Key West, Florida for four hours nightly and in turn rents space to artisans.

Due to many unforeseen changes over the years including Hurricane Irma, a global pandemic and the rising costs of living on Key West and the Florida Keys etc…CPS could use some help to keep the event and the arts alive at Sunset Celebration . We are at a crossroads currently as the City of Key West is suggesting changes that create a financial hardship on our already vulnerable event. In conjunction with other fundraising efforts , we are calling on our visiting participants of the Sunset Celebration event.

We believe that a collaborative donation effort can truly help us turn our dire financial situation around and get us over this hurdle. If you have ever enjoyed our event at Sunset Celebration and would like to have the opportunity in the future perhaps you will consider a donation. We thank you in advance for your support of Sunset Celebration and look forward to seeing you celebrate with us at Mallory Square.

Sunset Celebration is managed by the Key West Cultural Preservation Society, Inc., a 501 3c non-profit corporation. Since 1984 our mission has been to keep this unique event alive and well. Please help us support the arts by making a generous donation. You too can be a proud supporter of the arts!
