The Whatcom County Youth Fair offers a fantastic opportunity for Teen Leaders and adults to collaborate in teaching youth participants.
This event is entirely organized by dedicated volunteers, including Teen Leaders, parents, and sponsors. Celebrating its 36th year, the Youth Fair is a hands-on, two-day learning experience for youth ages 6-18.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, all our funds are reinvested into the fair for the benefit of our participants. We welcome youth from various locations, including Whatcom Skagit, Island Counties, Eastern Washington and as far south as Vancouver, WA.
We hope you'll join us!
