Student Art Exhibition

Celebrating a new generation of artists

​A key element of the Edmonds Arts Festival’s mission is to promote exposure to art and art education to the youth in our community. Partnering with the Edmonds School District, the Festival is one of the premier student art events in the United States, displaying more than 1,100 pieces of art from K-12 students. The 2024 gallery showcased art from 32 Edmonds School District schools, private schools, and individual home-schooled students residing within the boundaries of the Edmonds School District.

2026 Edmonds Arts Festival Student Art Exhibit Poster

The 2026 Student Art poster artist is James Lee. He is currently a 4th grader at Madrona K-8 school. He created the painting "Sockeye Salmon" over the course of four days using acrylic paint and marker. Inspired by the vibrant colors of salmon, James used bold shapes, detailed patterns, and bright contrasts to bring the fish to life. His artwork celebrates the beauty of the Pacific Northwest and showcases his creativity, patience, and artistic skill.
