The Juneau Arts and Humanities Council announced May 11 that it received a $49,473 grant from the Juneau Community Foundation’s Performing Arts Center Fund for its Arts Complex project. Specifically, the grant supports fundraising efforts to conduct in-depth prospect research on potential donors in all sectors and develop and design appealing Capital Campaign materials to be used in the overall fundraising campaign. With these products the active work of the quiet phase of the campaign will begin.
This work will sync with the forward movement of the design and construction planning for the Arts Complex.
The vision of Juneau’s new arts center is to create a space that is welcoming and inclusive to all artists and audiences. A community ‘living room’ of sorts, shared experiences will intersect, connect, and inspire within the theaters, lobby, gallery, café, and meeting rooms. In line with the vision, the design phase will include collaboration with artists and the community, who, together, will make and experience art in the finished building.
