Thank you for showing your support with online donations in support of the Celtic Junction Arts Center during these live and pre-recorded segments celebrating the best of our community and our programs.

We have been humbled by the response of support from you, our community. You’ve signed up for classes in record numbers, streamed videos, and checked in on social media. You put on your masks and kept your distance to support LIVE local music in our very own parking lot. You have raised 80K in funds so that we can unlock another 100K… Let’s finish off this campaign in time for The Junction’s 12th Anniversary on May 2nd!

Here’s a short overview of CJAC’s mission and history.
