Northwoods Arts Council

We believe art and music should be accessible to everyone. In the summer of 2026, we will present twelve free Lakeside Concerts for the community to enjoy. In July, renowned percussionist Josh Duffee will return to Hackensack with the Josh Duffee Band as part of this exciting lineup. In August, we will welcome visitors to our annual Art and Book Festival, another free event that brings artists, authors, families, and neighbors together.

These programs depend on the generosity of donors who help us keep the arts thriving in the Northwoods. Your support ensures that these long-loved traditions continue for years to come.
