Celebrating Art. Supporting Schools. Building Community.
For 39 years, the Chimacum Arts & Crafts Fair has been a beloved community tradition and an iconic, high-quality destination event that brings people together from across the region.
At the heart of the Fair is something simple: community.
We are an all-volunteer organization made up of people who love Chimacum, East Jefferson County, our schools, our artists, makers, families, and neighbors. We give our time because we believe in the place we call home and want to help make it stronger for the next generation.
The Fair showcases the creativity, spirit, and character of East Jefferson County and Chimacum Schools, while creating opportunities to:
- Raise money for school programs. Our home and primary focus is Chimacum Schools, while also considering projects that benefit our other public schools in East Jefferson County.
- Support our local maker’s economy by providing a place for artists, craftspeople, and small businesses to share and sell their work.
- Provide a marketplace for youth and nonprofit fundraisers, helping local organizations raise money for the programs and activities that matter to our community.
- Build community by creating a place where families, friends, neighbors, artists, students, and visitors can come together.
Giving Back for 39 Years
The Fair is proud of its long history of giving back. Over the past 39 years, the Chimacum Arts & Crafts Fair has donated more than $500,000 to schools and school groups throughout East Jefferson County.
Every vendor, shopper, volunteer, and community member who participates in the Fair helps make that possible.
What began as a local arts and crafts event has grown into a destination that people look forward to each year — but our purpose remains the same: support our community and give back to the schools and organizations that make East Jefferson County such a special place to live.
