San Juan Island is a beautiful sight to see. It’s no surprise the art scene is full of unique talents to see as well. Walking among sculptures in a San Juan Island Sculpture Park or a community theatre production on the island shows off the wondrous works that the island offers. At Northwest Island Escapes, we encourage that you check out and bring a piece of the splendid arts back to your community. Here’s how to experience the arts on San Juan Island.
San Juan Islands Sculpture Park
If you are on the islands on a nice sunny day, you owe it to yourself to visit the San Juan Islands Sculpture Park. It features more than 150 sculptures on 20-acres of land. Trails to the sculptures are easy to navigate, and the park is open from dawn to dusk.
San Juan Community Theatre
This is one of the best ways to understand the local art scene. The San Juan Community Theatre has a packed schedule of locally produced shows. Please check out the website for what they have planned next when you visit.
San Juan Islands Artists’ Studio
The studio tour is a free, self-guided tour through some of the island’s best works of art. Here you can find sculpture, jewelry, pottery, printmaking, glass, fiber, and fine art on display. You can even have an opportunity to chat with the artists about their work and the islands.
Island Stage Left
Here is another phenomenal theatre production. Admission is free, and if you are visiting in the summer, you can catch a Shakespeare show outside. During the cooler seasons, the exhibition moves indoors for more classical works. Check on the website to see what is playing next.
San Juan Islands Museum of Art
If you are looking to stroll and absorb the art scene here casually, the San Juan Islands Museum of Art is a terrific and inspiring location. The museum highlights local art and has a continuous cycle of new exhibits always moving in.
