Local Arts Organizations
Juneau enjoys a thriving, active, diverse, and amazing arts community.
World class theater, two opera companies, two dance companies, a community orchestra and several chamber ensembles, choirs, and an abundance of arts groups create an amazing array for such a small town.
The Juneau Arts & Humanities Council serves as the umbrella organization for them all, providing support, encouragement, a place to gather and talk together about ways to build all of our programs.
