We would like to send out a big thank you to all of the awesome volunteers, community partners, “spawnsors” and participants at this year’s Copper River Salmon Jam.

The event was a huge success and helped to raise funds for Cordova Arts & Pageants, your all-volunteer art council that brings you year-round art and cultural activities that keep life vibrant and exciting for all Cordovans. Thank you for supporting the arts to inspire future generations of creative thinkers!

Next year’s event will take place July 17-18, 2020. Be sure to sign up on our email list at salmonjam.org to stay up-to-date on the exciting line-up that we will bring you next year. You can also find a complete list of our generous “spawnsors” on our website.

Special thanks to the hard-working planning team and community partners who work year-round to organize and implement Salmon Jam, including Alaska Salmon Runs, City of Cordova, Copper River Watershed Project, Cordova Arts, Cordova Chamber of Commerce, Prince William Sound Science Center, United States Forest Service/Chugach National Forest and Mt. Eyak Ski Area. Sing out salmon!
