The Bainbridge Island Museum of Art is a must-visit for art lovers, and there are several annual arts events, including the Bainbridge Island Studio Tour and the Bainbridge Island Quilt Festival.

Bloedel Reserve: 

Bloedel Reserve is a 140 acre wonder of nature, created by the imagination, vision, and a passionate love of the natural world shared by the founders, Prentice and Virginia Bloedel. Working with the rugged geography of the land, they artfully transformed a rough-hewn Northwest forest into a harmonious series of curated gardens, structural features, and distinctive landscapes, with nature as canvas and paint.
