30th Annual Allied Arts Holiday Festival of the Arts
November 20th - December 24th 2009
On Meridian in Bellingham
The 30th Annual Holiday Festival of the Arts is a six week long festival featuring the work of nearly one hundred local artisans and craftspeople. The affordable handmade products will range from jewelry to paintings to wearable art to specialty foods. Weekends are packed with activities; hear live local music, catch some of our artists in action, and bring the kids in for fun art projects.
We are happy to announce a new location in the Squalicum Corporate Park in the old Cascade Furniture building. The location is just south of Bellis Fair Mall on Meridian across from the Bellingham Golf and Country Club.
The festival will be open weekly, Wednesday through Sunday, 10am to 6pm. Join us for two special nights, December 4th and 20th, during the festival to meet some of the artists and do some exclusive shopping.
For more information please contact Katy Borden, Artist Services Coordinator, at 676-8548 x5 or holidayfestival@alliedarts.org.
