22nd Annual Art At The Glen Showcases Juried Artists In Glenview

GLENVIEW, IL — For local artists, and those that appreciate art, make sure to head to the Glen Town Center this weekend. The 22nd annual Art at the Glen returns Saturday and Sunday, with over 130 juried artists being showcased.

Organizers said the event will feature a wide range of artwork, including paintings, ceramics, jewelry, photography, furniture and more. Art at the Glen runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. Admission and parking are free and there will be festival food, as well as offerings from the nearby restaurants.

In addition, there will be live music on two stages, kid-friendly activities like sand art and art fest bingo, and designated kid-friendly booths where young attendees can learn about the art-making process.

The festival is handicap accessible and wheel friendly. Leashed dogs are also welcome.

Organizers are also encouraging attendees to bring gently used wall art to donate to the Chicago Furniture Bank, a nonprofit providing furnishings and décor to individuals and families transitioning out of shelters into permanent housing.

Several artists at this show will also be participating in Amdur Productions' Purple Ribbon Project. Look for the purple ribbon on select artworks — when sold, a portion of the proceeds will benefit WINGS Program, Inc. WINGS is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing housing, integrated services, education, and advocacy to end domestic violence.
