MPAartfest 2018

MPAartfest 2018

Sincere thanks to everyone who joined us on Sunday, October 7 for our 12th annual MPAartfest. We believe it was the most well-attended in event history, with well over 9,000 visitors throughout the day!


On behalf of the MPA staff and Board of Directors, thank you to everyone who helped make this amazing day possible–our many community sponsors, our hundreds of enthusiastic volunteers, and, of course, all of those art lovers in attendance.


In addition to the 40 accomplished and varied artists curated into the event, special highlights included a full day of fabulous music in the gazebo, thanks to the support of TTR Sotheby’s International Realty, and produced again by our music impresario, Ken Avis. We also thank the wonderful food vendors who joined us, the many local service organizations and non-profits who participated, and the teachers and students who contributed to the Children’s ArtWalk–again beautifully organized by the New Dominion Women’s Club.


Our generous sponsors made the day possible, including our Lead Community Sponsor McLean Community Center, our event co-sponsors Fairfax County Park Authority and TD Bank, and all of the sponsors listed below.


MPA is an independent non-profit 501(C)3 organization. Funds raised at MPAartfest via sponsorships and individual donations support MPA exhibitions and programs throughout the year. Click here to learn how you can support MPA.


We can’t wait to see you next year!
