We're gearing up for another fantastic year! Check back soon for updates!
Coming Back in 2026!
The Federal Way Arts Commission hosts the annual Arts Explosion Juried Art Show Festival at the Performing Arts & Event Center (PAEC). This vibrant celebration of creativity showcases the talents of both adult and youth artists from across the region, while promoting artistic growth, diversity, and community engagement.
Artists are invited to submit works in a variety of categories, including Photography, Digital/Mixed Media, Textiles, Two-Dimensional (paintings, collages, prints), and Three-Dimensional (sculptures, jewelry, ceramics, furniture, wearable and body art). Youth artists, ages 15–18, are also encouraged to participate and submit artwork in any of the categories.
Stay tuned each year for event details and submission opportunities!
