Joan Perch – Artistic & Funding Director

What I love best about the FireFish Arts is the pure delight of working with artists and creatives, then getting to see the transformation of downtown Lorain, and how that is all reflected in the energy of the fabulous processional and FireFish burn!

I love FireFish Arts because it brings the community together and offers a unique experience for the Lorain community.  My favorite moment is when the crowd of thousands of people start cheering in unity “Burn the Fish! Burn the Fish!”
