Born from the need to connect, Portable Southeast is a region-wide opportunity to bridge artists, arts organizations, and businesses across Southeast Alaska. Portable Southeast is a traveling exhibit that is part of the Juneau Arts and Humanities Council (JAHC) Gallery Program.

All works should be inspired by life in coastal communities, small and/or packable, all media are eligible. The exhibit is curated by a group of people who represent various communities across Southeast Alaska, with a goal to coordinate a body of work by Southeast Alaskan artists that tours the region. The mission of this project is to provide exhibit opportunities for artists outside of their hometown, to build communication & networking opportunities among both large and small Southeast Alaska communities, and to create new partnerships between arts agencies and museums in Southeast Alaska.

Artists living in Southeast Alaska may submit up to 3 pieces for consideration, in any 2D or 3D media, subject to the following:

- Submissions (including framing and hanging hardware) must fit into a USPS Priority Mail Medium Size Flat Rate Box. Box 1, top loading dimensions: 11 1/4″ x 8 3/4″ x 6″ or Box 2, side loading dimensions: 14″ x 12″ x 3 1/2″.
- Submissions must be created in the last 3 years.
- Submissions should reflect some aspect of life in Southeast Alaska.
- Submissions must be gallery ready with proper hanging hardware installed.
