North Shore Art League,<br />
the 94-year-old arts organization<br />
located in Winnetka,<br />
will be bringing its<br />
national juried show, Art<br />
in the Village, to Winnetka’s<br />
Hubbard Woods Park<br />
again this summer.<br />
On June 23 and June 24,<br />
the park will be bustling<br />
with artists from across the<br />
country exhibiting their<br />
works to enthusiastic art<br />
lovers. The park is a beautiful<br />
setting for a summer<br />
art fair, right in the middle<br />
of the Village’s Hubbard<br />
Woods Design District.<br />
This boutique show will<br />
have more than 65 artists<br />
from across the country<br />
exhibiting their works.<br />
League faculty member<br />
Lisa DePinto will be back<br />
painting quick oil portraits.<br />
Local food vendors will<br />
also be on site with their<br />
delicious offerings. Conveniently<br />
located along<br />
Green Bay Road, there is<br />
plenty of free parking.<br />
The league is locally<br />
well-known as an art<br />
school and arts organization,<br />
with close ties to the<br />
Art Institute of Chicago,<br />
Columbia College Chicago<br />
and many art galleries,<br />
schools and institutions<br />
throughout the area. This<br />
fifth annual Art in the Village<br />
show is always wellreceived<br />
by the village and<br />
surrounding communities<br />
that appreciate fine art.<br />
At the time it was<br />
founded, the league was<br />
one of the original arts<br />
organizations in the country.<br />
League members organized<br />
the popular Old<br />
Orchard Art Fair in Skokie<br />
in the ’50s (which ran for<br />
more than 45 years under<br />
<strong>NS</strong>AL leadership) and the<br />
New Horizons Art Shows<br />
held in Chicago during the<br />
’60s and ’70s. Bringing<br />
this fair to Hubbard Woods<br />
Park is like a homecoming<br />
of sorts as one of our<br />
very first outdoor shows in<br />
1955 was held in that same<br />
park.<br />
The league hopes to see<br />
you there this summer!<br />
