HOLIDAY ARTS FAIR

 NOV 29 - DEC 24 | THURSDAYS-SUNDAYS | 4:00 PM - 8 PM

The BAM Holiday Arts Fair 2024 is a brand-new event hosted by the Bellevue Arts Museum, bringing the magic of the holidays and the arts together for the first time! This special holiday-themed fair offers a platform for emerging and established artists to showcase and sell their work in a festive indoor setting at the Bellevue Arts Museum. Visitors will enjoy a carefully curated selection of handmade art, perfect for holiday gifting, while supporting local artists. This winter celebration is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season. 

Please note, the BAM Holiday Arts Fair will run parallel to Snowflake Lane, a time when thousands of people flock to downtown Bellevue to celebrate the season.  This is a high-traffic shopping month and a great opportunity for artists of our area. Snowflake lane draws about 12,000-15,000 visitors each night. 


BAM Holiday Arts Fair welcomes applications in various art mediums, including painting, sculpture, glass, ceramics, photography, jewelry, and more.
