GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGESFabulous small art gallery/museum. The layout has been beautifully designed and curated by Peter Lane, the paintings shine from the walls and I enjoyed my walk through. Worth a good hour of your time to stop and appreciate the fine artists on display. Lovely things for sale in gift shop.

SJIMA had a very fine ceramic show when I attended in April. The show was well curated and I was impressed by.... well, everything. The building is attractive and easy to find in Friday Harbor.Outdoor space with picnic tables and lots of parking. Pleasant staff, tasteful gift shop and only $10 entry.

I really enjoyed the exhibit by the local artists. It's nice to live in a community with such talent
SJIMA champions artists, the arts, and arts programming because we champion authenticity of expression, place, and connections. Through its exhibitions, education, programs, and events, SJIMA establishes our island region as a place of enduring discovery. We want all who come into contact with SJIMA to become more fluent in the languages of curiosity and connection. When we send our children into the world, we want them to enter it, and return, with a strong sense of who they are and how they fit into the educational, ecological, and community landscape. This is the world SJIMA cultivates—a world where arts exposure, education, and opportunities provide every one of our residents and guests with the language of authenticity.
