The Bellevue Downtown Association and Bellevue Arts Museum will co-produce the Bellevue Arts Fair Weekend from July 25–27, 2025. This is the first time the two organizations have collaborated to present the event.

The event will combine the 79th annual BAM Arts Fair and the 33rd annual Bellevue Downtown Arts Market. It will take place across Downtown Bellevue, including the west parking garage at Bellevue Square, Bellevue Arts Museum, the NE 6th Street corridor, and 106th Avenue NE.

The fair will feature over 350 artists working in more than 20 mediums like ceramics, jewelry, painting, printmaking, photography, glass, and 3D mixed media.

Event programming includes:

  • Four live music and performing arts stages
  • 20+ food vendors
  • Free family programming
  • Hands-on interactive art projects
  • Artist exhibitor categories for Emerging Artists and Artist Collectives at Bellevue Square
  • A rooftop concert series hosted by BAM, which requires tickets
  • A free exhibition titled A History of the Fair on BAM’s third floor, open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the weekend

The event is expected to draw approximately 150,000 visitors, based on past attendance figures.

More information, including event hours, artist listings, and directions, is available at bellevueartsfair.com.
