ART WALK 2026 →
JULY 25, 12-6 PM
DOWNTOWN SHELTON
The 2026 Shelton Art Walk is a full-day celebration on Saturday, July 25, from 12 pm to 6 pm.
Part of the Downtown Shelton Creative District, this annual event celebrates art and creativity across our community. Experience the vibrant work of local artists and vendors—from paintings and sculpture to live performances and handmade goods. Stroll through downtown Shelton as participating businesses transform into pop-up galleries featuring visual art, installations, and demonstrations.
Visit the Art Market on Cota Street, featuring 80+ artists, crafters, and food trucks, and enjoy live music, performances, and hands-on art activities throughout the day.
The theme of the 2026 Shelton Art Walk is FROLIC.
This year’s theme draws inspiration from the spirited gatherings of the Olympus Manor artist colony on Hood Canal in the 1920s, led by artist and teacher Orre Nobles. Artists, writers, and creatives gathered in costume for lively events known as the “Kit-Kat Frolics,” celebrating creativity, playfulness, and artistic community.
