Bellevue Downtown Arts Market Returns With 110+ Artists, July 28-30 

The annual summer art event is back as part of Downtown's arts fair weekend, featuring over a hundred juried artists, live music, art activations and food trucks. 

The Bellevue Downtown Association (BDA) has announced the highly anticipated return of the Bellevue Downtown Arts Market, set to take place from July 28th to July 30th as part of Downtown’s arts fair weekend.

Marking its 33rd year, this outdoor market will transform the streets along 106th Ave NE & NE 6th St. into a vibrant public haven for creativity and artistic expression. More than 110 talented artists from all corners of the Pacific Northwest will showcase their awe-inspiring creations, providing a diverse selection of sculptures, jewelry, wood, glass work, photography and more.

The Arts Market will feature a wide range of artists representing multiple different mediums, including abstract art from Dee’s Fine Art, handmade clothing from Ida Loves Dresses, and Pacific Northwest landscape photography from Kris Sproul Photography.

The festivities extend beyond the artistic showcases, with an enticing array of food trucks. Attendees can enjoy the flavors of Cascadia Pizza Company, Road Dawg, and Seoul Bowl while immersing themselves in a symphony of live music performances, spanning classical guitar, flamenco, Egyptian, and Hawaiian melodies.

“The Downtown Arts Market is a great opportunity to engage and support artists,” Patrick Bannon, BDA President, said. “This is a wonderful community event to attend if you are looking for something new to add to your collection, unique gift ideas, or simply seeking a weekend filled with fun and creativity.”
