Bellevue Festival of the Arts is a juried arts and crafts fair located just across Lake Washington from Seattle. Its prime location by Cost Plus World Market just north of Bellevue Square, is in the heart of a vibrant city. We are now celebrating our 28th year and feature 180 of the most talented and popular artisans and craftspeople in the Northwest and beyond.
Produced by the Craft Cooperative of the Northwest we continue to support a variety of non-profits with proceeds from the festival. Visit our newsletter page for details. Estimated attendance is 150,000.
The Bellevue Festival of the Arts takes place the last full weekend in July in downtown Bellevue, Washington along with two other art fairs, the
Bellevue Art Museum's ArtsFair and
Bellevue's 6th Street Fair. Together these three fairs are known as Bellevue Arts Week and were awarded 2011 Best Festival & Best Event in 425 Magazine’s ‘Best Of ’ issue.
