Northern Virginia Fine Arts Festival

The much anticipated annual Greater Reston Arts Center’s Northern Virginia Fine Arts Festival is coming! May 16-17, 2015. A nationally top-ranked fine art and craft festival that typically attracts 30,000+ patrons, the Festival is also Greater Reston Arts Center's primary fundraiser, and it allows GRACE -- the area's largest non-profit dedicated exclusively to enhancing community life through excellence in and the promotion of the contemporary visual arts -- to offer its free-to-the-public exhibitions at its Town Center Gallery and art education programs across all ages.

Each year the competitive, juried, Northern Virginia Fine Arts Festival features over 200 skilled artisans who utilize both traditional and unconventional materials and techniques to create hand-crafted, original works of art available for purchase. The sheer diversity of fine art and craft at the Festival, now in its 24th year, ensures that there is something for every taste and budget. If you would like a chance to mingle with the festival artists, The Festival Launch Party will take place at the Reston Town Center Pavilion on May 15, and will feature savory treats, specialty wine, music and a silent auction.
