Artist Reception - Maple Valley Days Arts Festival | June 12–14, 2026

The Maple Valley Creative Arts Council invites artists and artisans to apply for the Maple Valley Days Arts Festival, a juried community event held at the beautiful Lake Wilderness Lodge.

This dynamic festival brings together regional artists, live performances, and an engaged audience in a welcoming, high-traffic setting—creating an ideal opportunity to exhibit and sell your work while connecting with the community.

We welcome submissions across a wide range of mediums, including painting, photography, sculpture, ceramics, woodwork, jewelry, and handcrafted goods.
