Art on the Avenue is a multicultural arts festival held in the Del Ray neighborhood of Alexandria, Virginia, celebrating our community’s diversity through the arts.
Find my Beaudoin Jewelry & Glass booth, E16, on Mount Vernon Avenue, between E. Bellefonte and E. Howard Avenues.
Every year, more than 50,000 visitors stroll down Mt. Vernon Avenue in Del Ray, Alexandria, between Bellefonte and Hume Avenues — people are greeted by more than 300 artists (jewelers, silversmiths & beaders, woodworkers, pottery makers, soap crafters, glass makers, unique painters, sculptors, fabric artists & more), musicians (Irish, folk, rock-n-roll, country & more), and food vendors (hot dogs, BBQ, Indian, Mexican, pizza, crab cakes, chocolate bananas dipped on sticks, homemade cider donuts & more). kids’ activities have always been a vital part of the festival — stuff your own scarecrow, paint a pumpkin, lotus flower design, and weave screen art, to name a few.
Free trolley transportation is available from the Braddock Road Metro.
