The popular outdoor, artistic event of the year is back in Clarendon — now on Labor Day weekend.
The Arlington Labor Day Weekend Festival of the Arts will take place Sept. 4-5 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. Visitors will have the chance to see thousands of fine works from across the globe in a prestigious show encompassing fine jewelry, exquisite works of art, and hand-crafted apparel and decor.
Whether your passions run to sparkling jewels and one-of-a-kind paintings, masterfully crafted glasswork or an art deco sculpture, you are sure to find it during the free, two-day event. Ample parking is available, and pets on leashes are always welcomed.
Presented by Howard Alan Events (HAE), producer of the nation’s finest juried art shows, the Arlington Labor Day Weekend Festival of the Arts represents original, hand-crafted artwork selected by an independent panel of expert judges from hundreds of applicants. HAE’s careful vetting process also ensures a wide array of mediums and price ranges will be offered during the Festival.
