Description:

From 5th annual Barrington Art Festival Website:

Amdur Productions proudly kicks off the summer festival season with the fifth annual Barrington Art Festival over Memorial Day weekend. Known for its grand mansions and horse farms, the affluent and vibrant Chicago suburb of Barrington boasts a wealthy population with a deep appreciation and buying history of art. Located 35 miles northwest of Chicago, the Village of Barrington is the commercial center of a cluster of affluent communities that stretches across two major counties. The trade area of this festival has a population of 64,587. The community has a median household income of $102,370 in the Village and $135,629 in the immediate trade area.

The Festival takes place in the charming downtown of Barrington, filled with delectable cafes, unique boutiques and popular restaurants. Store fronts range from turn of the century to modern. The festival layout has artists back to the curb with a main center walkway for visitors. Cute sitting areas dot the area.

A lovely awards party for artists Saturday night at a local restaurant is a highlight among artists. Festival admission and parking for the public are free. Artists will have the opportunity to interact with the public through art demos and booth chats. Live music, great food and fun activities for kids make the festival a perfect family experience. Daily drawings will take place and several lucky festival-goers will receive Art Buck$, courtesy of Amdur Productions, to spend on a piece of art at any of Amdur Productions 2015 festivals!
