As one of the longest-running Northwest premier arts events, the Edmonds Arts Festival is a three-day event that celebrates the arts in our community. Scenic downtown Edmonds, just 15 miles north of Seattle and overlooking Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, gives patrons a beautiful setting to view and acquire original works of fine art and crafts. The event provides three days of entertainment, shopping, dining, and gallery exhibits to area locals and visitors alike. During the Festival you can enjoy:

More than 240 artist booths with original works of art for sale where you can meet every artist in person
Three juried art galleries where award-winning work in all media are on display and for purchase
Performers who provide entertainment at an outdoor amphitheater, including music and dance
More than 20 food vendors who provide ethnic and healthy food choices along with plenty of traditional fair food options
An exhibit of more than 1,000 selected pieces of art from students residing within the boundaries of the Edmonds School District
A “Kids Create” area that provides children with guided art enrichment activities and hands-on experiences, as well as the ever-popular face painting
The Festival Store, where you can purchase art posters, logo clothing, and other Festival memorabilia

The Edmonds Arts Festival Association is a not-for-profit organization staffed entirely by volunteers who are passionate about its mission. All profits from the Festival are transferred to the Edmonds Arts Festival Foundation that distributes it back into the community in the form of art scholarships and community grants.
