Connecting our community to the world of art since 1985

ArtFest is committed to presenting exceptional artistry and providing a thriving marketplace where artists can showcase their work to art lovers from throughout the Inland Northwest. The festival atmosphere is created with the addition of live music, food trucks, a beer garden, and Make-it-Art Kids’ Projects. It is presented and produced by The Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, (MAC) a nonprofit organization. Proceeds from the event support art education, exhibitions, and community programming for youth and adults. All revenue from art sales goes directly to the artists. The $5 admission fee helps cover essential festival costs, including security and top-tier musical performers.

Located on the MAC campus, the ArtFest grounds offer a beautiful, park-like backdrop with all the charm of the Browne’s Addition historic neighborhood and easy access to the MAC’s amenities.
