Duvall City Hall Gallery
Duvall’s City Hall provides a wall as a showplace for local artists, managed by DFA. The artwork is changed every six to eight weeks, and the subject artist displays their resume along with the artwork, which is featured on both the website of the City and of DFA.
The Duvall Sand Blast Festival is all about Community, Arts, Music, and Family Fun... and, of course, Sand Sculpturing. Sand Blast got its start in 1995 and was simply a gathering of some friends who thought it would be fun to do some sand sculpturing down where the Snoqualmie River makes a couple of sharp bends and in the process deposits a large sand bar. In the early days of Sand Blast, 1995-1997, the sand bar(or beach) was accessible via a small path, surrounded by wild shrubbery, from the old railroad trail off of Main Street. In 1998, the newly formed Duvall Foundation for The Arts got involved and there was entertainment in the parking area across the old railroad trail. The 1999 opening of McCormick Park along the river and the old railroad trail also opened up the possibility to unify the Sand Blast sand sculpturing on the river bank with the Sand Blast entertainment previously held in the parking lot.
The 10th annual Sand Blast festival had roughly 2500 visitors. Sand Blast is held in July each year. Click link above for current information about Sand Blast.
