The North Bend Educational & Cultural Association is a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation established to support community events that support and promote local businesses, award educational scholarships, and bring people together in service and celebration. Our annual fundraising events are the Spring Scholarship Auction, and the Festival at Mt Si which takes place in on the second weekend of August each year (Friday, Saturday and Sunday).
NBECA is a registered charity with the Washington Secretary of State and exists solely as a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation. Our UBI number is 602 491 052 and our Federal EIN number is 91-1670006.

The festival hours are: Friday 6pm-10pm, Saturday 10am-10pm (booth hours 10am-7pm), and Sunday 10am-4pm.
Shop ’til you drop with arts and crafts vendors hailing from all over the State of Washington. Get your corn-on-the-cob, elephant ears, and much more at the many booths offering Washington’s best food and drink. Relax in the beer & wine garden while supporting the festival and the local Rotary Club. Groove to jazz, blues, rock, country and more with live performances on two stages.
