Arts Commission
The La Conner Arts Commission is a public agency devoted to encouraging artistic expression and providing diverse, high quality public art for the enjoyment of residents and visitors.
Sculpture Show
Annually, the Arts Commission selects new sculptures, on a competitive basis, and exhibits them on a walking tour throughout La Conner. These impressive works, on loan from sculptors around the Northwest, are for exhibit and for sale. The proceeds from sales are used to purchase public art for the Town of La Conner. "Crossing Point" at the Skagit County Historical Museum; "Apple Tree" and "Spirit Wheel" near Maple Hall; and the "Fish Bridge", which serves as a gangway to a public dock on First Street, are examples of public art the Town owns. The Arts Commission manages La Conner's permanent collection of art and sculptures.
