This is a Good Weekend to be in Spokane!

Two of my favorite creative events are taking place in Spokane this weekend. If you plan your weekend well, you’ll be able to hit both!

I’ve been attending ArtFest every year since I moved into my first Spokane apartment. It is, hands down, my favorite art show in the city. ArtFest reminds me of the craft shows I used to go to with my aunt when I was younger—I love it.

I usually end up making two trips to Browne’s Addition to walk through the show and make decisions about purchases. I almost always find Christmas gifts to hide away (in addition to a new coffee mug of course).

ArtFest, sponsored by the MAC, is an outdoor show held in Coeur d’Alene Park in Browne’s Addition.

There is no admission fee (bonus!):
June 3  12PM – 8 PM  (Music until 10)
June 4 10 AM – 8 PM  (Music until 10)
June 5 10 Am  - 5 PM


The other show you shouldn’t miss this weekend is The Farm Chicks’ Antiques Show at the Spokane Fair Grounds. This year the show promises over 200 antique and craft vendors. With a creative eye you can find all sorts of repurposeable goods at this show. I plan on attending and posting photos of my favorite finds, so check back early next week!

Admission is $7 (but the first 1,000 people on Sunday will receive a free gift):
Saturday, June 4th: 10am-6pm
Sunday, June 5th: 10am-4pm
