Power of Play returns on March 22, 2026!
GEF’s annual “Day of Play for all ages” is back for an 8th year on Sunday, March 22! This FREE community event draws hundreds of Gloucester families to the GHS Field House to participate in dozens of fun activities, all led by community volunteers and partners. We’ll post the schedule and activities for the day in early March, but in the meantime, check out photos below from past years by community volunteer Marty Del Vecchio and GHS student photographers, and this video by 1623 Studios! Together, they will give you a taste for this beloved event.
Help make Power of Play a success: sign up to be a day-of event volunteer!
Thank you to our lead sponsor and founding partner Cape Ann Savings Bank, and to sponsors Sawyer Free Library, Medeiros General Construction, and Seashore Comfort Solutions! Their continued support helps keep this event free and accessible to the entire community.
