Art’s alive in Bothell!

Posted by Judy Gratton

What can one do on a sunny summer day in Bothell?  How about taking a bike ride on the Burke Gilman Trail to the Bothell Landing for a little artistic enjoyment?  Well this last weekend I followed the crowd to the LiveARTS Bothell Festival

The LiveARTS Bothell Festival continues a 35-year tradition of arts in our community with a juried art exhibit,artisan booths, live entertainment, food and fun. Truly a community event with an all-volunteer staff, This year’s LiveARTS Bothell festival brought thousands of people to the Park at Bothell Landing to enjoy the sunshine, art, music, and food and to raise awareness and dollars for local arts causes.  this year LiveARTS was affiliated with the NorthWest Art Alliance ‘Art Ride‘. Folks biked along the Burke Gilman trail and enjoyed the beautiful sights, the arts, music and the food.   This year also featured a ‘kids corner’ where kids  celebrated the natural beauty of our area by making their very own art.  Kid's corner

There was a performance stage with lots of local talent including the Ceda Steel band, a local group of kids playing steel drums.
