Bellevue also has its own symphony orchestra and an opera company. Moreover, it
is home to the annual summer Pacific Northwest Arts and Crafts Festival, one of
the largest outdoor events of its type and one which attracts participants and
visitors from many other states and Canada. Bellevue's cultural life will be
further boosted by a major center for the performing arts, construction of which
is expected to begin in the near future.
Bellevue Arts Museum
Bellevue Arts Museum is the Pacific Northwest’s center for the exploration of
art, craft and design through exhibitions, educational programs and

Cascadian Chorale
This choir performs year-round, and one is likely to see the same faces in
the audience time and again. It is no wonder, as the director has a knack for
selecting seldom-heard pieces from well-known composers like Haydn and
Saint-Saens. It is worth the drive to the Eastside to see the performances.
Meydenbauer Center hosts many of the concerts but the choir often performs in
the Carlson Theater at Bellevue Community College.
