Anacortes Arts Commission
​

Anacortes Arts Commission includes an e x p a n d i n g, diverse public art collection in locations ranging from public buildings, to waterfront settings, to parks and forestlands. Thriving arts organizations offer year-round programming in theater, music, visual and literary arts.
Fidalgo Island has a large public art collection that includes outdoor sculpture, a variety of murals, and public buildings with art collections by a wide range of well-known regional artists – as well as a number of Monuments and Memorials. Skagit County and Fidalgo Island were the home of a number of artists who developed a unique northwest style of art established in the early part of the 20th century, and artists who have subsequently continued to define the uniqueness of our area through their painting, sculpture, photography and other mediums. 
​
We invite YOU to take the time to explore   the public art displayed in this site. It is our hope that YOU will be surprised, inspired, or just entertained as you to  experience  the Arts in Anacortes.
The Arts Commission is an advisory board to the City of Anacortes pertaining to public arts and culture. Meeting are the second Wednesday of every month at 4:00 p.m. at the Library Meeting Room.
