ALCHEMY ART CENTER

1255 Wold Road, Friday Harbor, WA 98250

Alchemy Art Center is the only community art space on San Juan Island. We are a non-profit organization for creative people to learn, work and connect. We offer ceramics, photography, and printmaking classes, as well as studio membership. Alchemy is open to both locals and our islands' visitors. We host weekend workshops in all of our studios, as well as classes for adults and children. Our programming is building a richer and more creative island culture. The San Juan Islands are becoming recognized as a thriving arts community, and the arts are a source of great value to us. Come get creative at Alchemy!

Alchemy Art Center is now open for the summer season to the public on Saturdays from 12:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.! If you have been wanting to swing by and check us out, please do so. We will be happy to show you around!
