The SFAC campus includes a full stage multiuse event space with both large and small reception areas, four accommodation facilities, a fitness center with a gymnasium, and many different classroom-style rooms.

The large lawn at SFAC is great for outdoor events and receptions, with tents to shelter attendees.
When you book their facilities, SFAC provides on-site support staff, access to high-speed internet, and tables and chairs as required. They can also assist with catering and bar service, from beer and wine to multicourse meals.
Regardless of whether you’ re planning a wedding, an overnight wellness retreat, or a grand convention opening, SFAC has the space and on-site support to accommodate your vision.

Planner Spotlight: ATIA

The Alaska Travel Industry Association( ATIA) holds an annual membership convention and trade show each fall, and with over 400 attendees, they found the Sitka Fine Arts Campus to be the perfect venue. They were able to utilize most of the campus grounds with keynote speakers, live auctions, and a formal banquet set up in the Hames Center, as well as exhibitor booths and receptions in the Odess Theater. On-campus meeting rooms offered convenient break-out spaces, and on-campus dorms were used for additional housing for attendees. Using the dynamic spaces at the Sitka Fine Arts Campus was a great success, and the community of Sitka offered all the elements ATIA needed for a successful convention.
