Cascadia Fine Arts Festival 2026

The Cascadia Fine Arts Festival takes place Saturday, May 16th and Sunday, May 17th, 2026, in Downtown Troutdale, Oregon. This juried festival showcases Fine Arts and Fine Crafts selected by a local jury looking for diverse and original artwork. The festival is led by artists and supported by art-inspired volunteers.

Festival hours are 11 am - 8 pm Saturday (setup 7:00 am - 10:30 am) and 10 am - 4 pm Sunday (teardown 4 pm - 7 pm). The jury evaluates work based on originality, personal voice/vision, creativity, and technical skill, as well as booth presentation. Artists must submit five art images plus one booth shot (sized to 1400 pixels wide), with no artist name, likeness, or business name visible in any submitted images. Artists can apply for up to two mediums but must apply separately for each; if both are approved, only one booth fee applies. A "Showcase" piece submission (high resolution) is requested for potential brochure cover feature, with selected artists receiving a short bio (300 words) in the festival brochure.

Booth options are 10' x 10' for $275 or 10' x 20' for $550 (limited to 4 spaces; contact organizer before purchasing double booth). Jury fee is $35. Artists must bring their own white, fire-resistant canopy/tent and fire extinguisher. Each artist retains 100% of sales with no commission. Artists must be present in their booth during all festival hours; volunteers are available for short breaks. All work must be original or direct result of artist's original work; no resale or third-party products allowed. Photographic prints must be archival quality, signed, and professionally packaged. Payment by credit or debit card is due by February 7, 2026. Jury fees are non-refundable. The festival includes free artist parking, dedicated artist shuttle, overnight security Saturday, and a welcome packet with activity options and hotel discounts. A silent auction fundraiser benefits the Cascadia Arts Association.
