Where art and community meet under the redwoods.

September 20-21, 2025 | 10AM - 5PM

The beauty of this show's venue is unparalleled. This venerated art festival held in a gorgeous redwood grove in downtown Mill Valley, showcases the work of 135 fine art and fine craft artists. Only original artist-made work is acceptable. September is a wonderful time to come together and celebrate art and community! The show has 67 years of experience and remains dedicated to producing a unique, high-end show for both artists and patrons alike. The Golden Gate Bridge connects Marin County to San Francisco and the show draws visitors from both of these affluent communities. Our annual festival also has a children’s grove and live entertainment, something fun for everyone! Please leave your furry friends at home.
