Don't miss Downtown Juneau on Friday, December 6, 2024 from 4:30-7:30pm - it's Gallery Walk, Juneau's annual holiday celebration of the arts! From Glacier Avenue to South Franklin Street you'll discover over 50 participating locations featuring artist exhibits, holiday activities, store specials, live music, dance performances, carolers, and more! 

Scroll down to the "What's Happening Around Town" section of this page to see the most current listing of Gallery Walk events. Download the Gallery Walk map to your phone or download a printable version for your business (coming soon!). Printed copies of the map will be available at select locations on Friday during the event.

Thanks to Juneau Whale Watch Tours, the Holiday Trolley will be running approximately every 20 minutes during the event with four stops: the Alaska State Museum, S. Franklin by the Tram, Front + Franklin by the Clock, and the Capitol Building. Park and ride for free! Free parking will be available at the Subport Lot in front of the US Coast Guard Building, and free parking will be offered after 3pm on Friday, December 6th at the Shopper’s Lot, the North Franklin Lot, the Downtown Transportation Center Garage, and the Marine Parking Garage thanks to the City & Borough of Juneau and Juneau District Heating. 

Front Street, between Franklin and Seward, will be closed on Friday, December 6th from 4:30 PM to 7:30 PM to make space for gathering and celebrating around our fire pit and warming up with free hot chocolate as we enjoy performances and music throughout the evening. Be entertained with festive music from the folks at Juneau Media Center and performances by local groups, including JAMM students, Eagle Raven Dance Group, JDHS Dance and Zansler on Front Street. Vox Borealis holiday caroling can be heard from 5:30-7:30pm at Trove South Franklin Street. Juneauites are encouraged to stop by the Sealaska Arts Campus, Atnané Hít, to visit with artists and vendors, watch Native Youth Olympics demonstrations in the Caln House, and enjoy a special music performance at the Sealaska Corporation building. Visit Santa and take a S(elf)ie with him at Downtown Heritage Coffee for a donation in support of Juneau Animal Rescue.
