Head to Bellevue Square to check out the Bellevue Arts Fair from July 25 to 27. The fair features live music, food trucks and, of course, plenty of art!
This year, over 350 artists with work spanning across 20 different mediums will sell their works. From ten types of jewelry to pottery to printmaking, the fair will be full of vibrant art from local artists!
History of the Fair:
Since its opening in 1947, the Bellevue Arts Fair has long been a key event celebrating the local culture and art of the city. It also led to the creation of the beloved Bellevue Arts Museum, which was founded in 1975 by volunteers from the fair!

Friday’s concert includes the innovative jazz band, M.E.C.A Collective, on the rooftop of the Bellevue Arts Museum. Saturday features the Latin jazz band, Todos Jazz and a live salsa instructor who will give dance lessons.
