The 2025 Bethesda Fine Arts Festival will be held May 10 & 11, 2025 and will feature fine art created by 120 of the nation’s best artists, live entertainment and Bethesda restaurants.
Located in Bethesda’s Woodmont Triangle, along Norfolk, Auburn & Del Ray Avenues. Admission to the festival is FREE and parking is available in the public parking garage on Auburn Avenue. This event is held rain or shine.
More than 20,000 attendees will enjoy the festival and we need your support to make this event a great success. Help from volunteers is an essential part of Bethesda Urban Partnership’s exciting festivals.
We are recruiting for the following positions:
Set-Up Team & Booth Volunteers
The set-up team assists with distributing artist signs, setting out table cloths, etc. We ask that booth volunteers mind artists’ tents while they take a brief bathroom or lunch break. This is important as many of the artists travel alone and have no one to watch their space when they need a break. Additionally, we may ask booth volunteers to pass out water to artists.
