Join us for the 5th annual Jersey City Arts Awards!
The Jersey City Arts Awards recognize the creative artists and
organizations at the forefront of our community. Each year, JCAC selects local artists from a wide range of categories that have
done exceptional work through their medium and had an outsized impact on Jersey City. And we use this chance to throw a big ol' party!!! Come out and celebrate the arts with some food, drink, and plenty of creative spirit!
