Sant d'A Jakmel - Jacmel Arts Center

Sant d'A Jakmel - Jacmel Arts Center The premiere hub for artistic innovation, exhibition, and education in Haiti's artistic capitol, Jac Operating in the historic Boucard & Co building on Rue St.

The Jacmel Arts Center was established in January 2017 as an inclusive space to support the exhibition, education and production of the arts in Jacmel. It grew out of a collective movement of artists that had been working together under the name FOSAJ since 2003. These artists united together in an effort to reinvent themselves and to breathe new life into the once vibrant arts scene of the city.

Anne, which was severely damaged in the earthquake of 2010, the artists recommitted themselves to restoring the space as a formidable hub of Haitian artistic innovation. By repairing the wounds of the past and coalescing behind a dynamic new vision for the future, the artists began to chart a new path towards rebuilding a reputable and active arts institution. Towards this end, they recruited a new administration with an energized and creative leadership at the top. With the new direction in place and their new collective identity ratified, they began taking the necessary steps to creating the structure needed to put new strategies and programs in place to serve the city's artists with respect, transparency, and heart. They now operate the city's most prestigious art gallery, an active art school, and popular artisan boutique, in addition to many other programs for the city's creative population.

Rest in Peace to Gerald Plaisimond, forever a part of the Jacmel arts family.

The Sant d’A Jakmel family is mourning the loss of SAJ artist, our brother and friend, Jean Cupidon, who passed away earlier this week. Cupidon leaves behind a creative legacy of expressing imaginative interpretations of Haiti’s landscapes through soft and inviting colors. His presence in our community and at the arts center will be deeply missed. We share our condolences with his children and loved ones.

If you would like to make a contribution towards Cupidon’s memorial services, SAJ can facilitate any donations through our website to be shared with his family and help cover memorial expenses. Rest in Peace, Cupidon.
