October 4
MPAartfest will transform McLean Central Park (corner of Dolley Madison Blvd and Old Dominion Drive) into a lively landscape of mini art galleries showcasing and offering for sale the work of a diverse group of 50 juried artists. There will be music and great food and much to do and see for the whole family. The Artfest takes place from 10am–5pm.
MPA Artfest attracts more than 7,000 residents of McLean, Fairfax County and the greater DC area. Families, friends and visitors have the opportunity to meet 50 of Northern Virginia’s top visual artists, purchase art works, and create art.
New for 2015! ArtFest attendees can participate in MPA’s new, innovative ArtReach and STEAM activities, a dynamic collaboration between MPA and the state-of-the-art Children’s Science Center.
For the full month leading into Artfest, a community-wide Great Art Scavenger Hunt, a business sponsor event, will take place. Visitors to Artfest-sponsoring companies can complete the Scavenger Hunt submission form. Prizes will be awarded to the participants with the most visited number of sponsor companies.
