Bellevue Arts Museum Arts Fair is the original, longest-running arts festival in the Pacific Northwest. Set amid the metropolitan energy of downtown Bellevue, BAM Arts Fair is a high-end shopping experience featuring over 300 top national artists and craftspeople. Hundreds of thousands of visitors flock to this three-day celebration to meet the artists, be entertained, shop and dine. Free community arts programming includes Kids Fair, free admission to Bellevue Arts Museum all weekend, public installations and musical performances. BAM Arts Fair is located at Bellevue Square and Bellevue Arts Museum and is part of the greater Bellevue Arts Fair Weekend established this year. A cherished community event, the Fair originated in 1947 and was instrumental in the growth of downtown Bellevue and the creation of the Bellevue Arts Museum.
