17th annual Promenade of Art

From 17th annual Promenade of Art Website:

Celebrating its seventeenth year, the Promenade of Art Arlington Heights is a longstanding tradition for residents of this prosperous western Chicago suburb of over 75,000 residents and nearby communities. The festival takes place in the lively downtown area amid upscale high-rise apartments, boutiques, cafes, theaters and popular restaurants. Arlington Heights is the 15th largest municipality in Illinois and a unique blend of old and new.

Art of all varieties has sold well here. Many artists have been "found" by those looking for large art installations for businesses and have gone on to create special commissions for these clients. Traditional themes do well here too.

The festival takes place on Vail and Campbell Streets in Arlington Heights' beautiful downtown which is situated around a beautiful park and fountain. Admission and parking at the festival are free. The Village's five floor parking structure gives festival attendees plenty of onsite parking.

Easy load in and load out make this festival a pleasure to do. Artists will have the opportunity to interact with the public through art demos and booth chats throughout the festival weekend. Live music, great food and fun activities for kids make the festival a perfect experience for all.
