The Arts
The Islands attract accomplished and varied artists who share their work in many different venues. Browse galleries or a sculpture park, and outdoor markets offering colorful paintings, fiber art, and jewelry. Enjoy moving performances at one of our three community theatres/centers. Or, take a class at Alchemy Art Center to become an artist yourself, inspired by the islands. Whatever your interests, you’ll discover a vast range of artistic offerings and activities on your visit to the San Juan Islands.
