The fourth AHA! Fall River featured over 35 events at fourteen venues in downtown Fall River on a comfortable May 21, 2015 evening. The events are designed to help foster an invigorated arts and culture scene in the City. "This event's theme is 'Every House Has a Story'" stated Sancy Dennis, who, along with her husband, Dave Dennis, and Donna Winn, organized the event. AHA! Fall River was formed in June 2013 in collaboration with the New Bedford AHA! and the Community Foundation of Southeastern Massachusetts. AHA! stands for arts, history and architecture. The organization held its first event on June 21, 2013 and has held two events since then, including the most recent event in December 2014. The purpose of the organization is to develop collaborative relationships in order to expand and sustain arts and cultural programming in the two cities.
