About Bellevue Arts Museum

Bellevue Arts Museum is a nonprofit organization that connects artists and audiences through arts, culture, and education. Its signature event is the Bellevue Arts Fair Weekend, a three-day summer celebration with artist booths, family activities, live performances, and workshops. The organization says it produced the 80th fair in 2026. The museum's former gallery space closed in 2024 after financial difficulties, and the organization later sold its Bellevue Way facility as part of a wider restructuring. Its website lists a Bellevue College campus location and a mailing address, and it points visitors to upcoming fair dates for 2027.
