Summertide Solstice Art Festival

Celebrate one of the longest day of the year at the Summertide Solstice Festival, a free outdoor gathering where art, nature, and community come alive. Set among the forested trails of Webster’s Woods Sculpture Park at the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center, this festival blends creativity with the wild beauty of the Pacific Northwest.
Spend the day enjoying live music in a stunning open-air setting, sampling local food and drinks from vendors and the beer garden, and taking part in free hands-on art activities for all ages. Wander the paths to hear poetry readings from Poetry in the Park finalists and be among the first to experience the unveiling of a brand-new sculpture in the park.
This year also features Field Notes, a captivating exhibition inspired by the birds of the Pacific Northwest. The show brings together artists who explore nature through observation, storytelling, and imagination, inviting you to slow down, look closer, and reconnect with the world around you.
