About
The Juried Art Show takes place in the Piano Nobile Exhibition Space on the second floor of the Brick Building at the Phinney Center. This popular addition brought vibrant energy to the festival last year, drawing steady crowds throughout the weekend—especially with art workshops happening just beyond the exhibit in the adjacent studio space.
Many of last year’s participating artists volunteered to help staff the space, creating a welcoming and engaged environment that added something truly special to the overall festival experience. This exhibition will feature approximately 30 artworks with track exhibition lighting. Sales will be facilitated through QR codes on exhibition labels, directing buyers to a website for purchasing.
