Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival – 57th annual

The 57th Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival on September 21 and 22 will showcase over 140 fine artists from all across the country and offer live music and children’s entertainment. (See schedule below) The juried works include prints, jewelry, paintings, woodwork, photography and sculpture. The festival, held in the Redwood grove of Old Mill Park in down town Mill Valley, is rated one of the top 10 fine arts and crafts shows in the Northwest. Join us for this beloved Mill Valley tradition. 
Good food and drinks are provided by and benefit local non-profits. Best of all is the setting itself: a fragrant redwood forest at the close of summer, shaded by its mountain.
The Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival is unique in that it is by a volunteer committee of local artists! These committed volunteers have given the Bay Area community a spectacular festival to enjoy for 57 years.  Any surplus funds from this non-profit Festival go right back to the community for park improvements and the Emerging Artist Award granted to two High School art students per year.
Ride to the Festival in style! MV Transport will be providing the bus transport service for the Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival this year. This is a major upgrade from the old school buses used in the past. These state of the art shuttles are plush, roomy and easy turning.  The shuttle is free and makes getting to the festival hassle free – Check the route and stops at the festival website.  Music Schedule
