Juneau Arts And Humanities Council

Regranting and arts organization support - total affected is indeterminate - we pass funds along to other organizations to benefit their constituencies. The city & borough assembly charged the council with managing the redistribution of city arts funding in 2005. The council worked with the other groups to develop a fair and equitable distribution process which it administers annually. This process includes maintaining close contact with all the arts groups and facilitating support in the form of training, advice, community- wide communication as well as the redistribution of funds.

Performing arts & culture concert series - 5,000 patrons, including students, artists, and senior citizens. The council provides tickets at no charge to a variety of social service agencies to allow people who might otherwise be unable to enjoy the benefits of live performances to attend. The council offers the highest quality performances, selected to augment the offerings from other presenters in the community. Generally, the season includes world music, family entertainment, classical and jazz music, and professional dance. The council also focuses on presenting alaskan performers from different regions of the state when possible.
