North Bend Art & Industry
North Bend Art & Industry is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2019, dedicated to fostering creativity, connection, and community through the arts. We bring together artists, makers, and the public to celebrate and support the creative culture in North Bend and the Snoqualmie Valley.
Our Mission
North Bend Art & Industry’s mission is to develop a regional environment where people of all ages and backgrounds can explore and nurture their creativity and curiosity. A maker space to expand perspectives and establish social connections through mentoring, incubation, and innovation in the arts.
Our Values
We believe art thrives where people connect. Through community, we create spaces where everyone feels welcome. We embrace collaboration, working together to inspire and support one another. We celebrate diversity, honoring different perspectives, cultures, and voices. And we champion creativity, encouraging bold ideas and imaginative expression in all we do.
Our Vision
We envision a vibrant artistic hub on the East Side that reflects the character and culture of the Snoqualmie Valley—a place where creativity and community thrive. Through workshops, demonstrations, and training programs, we provide education and resources for every art form, from painting, ceramics, and sketching to iron-working, glass-blowing, woodworking, music, literary arts, and culinary arts. Our maker spaces and gallery spaces give artists room to create, share, and connect, while our advocacy ensures art and artists have a strong voice. This is a place to gather, learn, and collaborate—a community built to educate, engage, inspire, and empower.
