Fine Art Festival at Oakbrook Center
This year’s festival features ceramics, fiber, glass, jewelry, and wood. The Spring Art Festival will take place Saturday and Sunday, rain or shine.
“The Fine Art Festival creates an art and cultural oasis along Oakbrook Center’s already elegant exterior mall, which features beautiful open walk ways among trees, plants, flowers, signature stores and restaurants,” says Amy Amdur, president of Amdur Productions, “Festival goers will have the opportunity to find unique works of art, which are great gifts for this season’s weddings as well as indulgences for the home.”
Free and open to the public, the Fine Art Festival will showcase the work of about 70 juried artists from across the country in a variety of mediums, highlighting jewelry, fashion, glass and functional art, as well as painting and photography. Along with the incredible artwork available for purchase, attendees will be able to interact with artists through demonstrations and booth chats.
We are so pleased to announce that Autism Speaks is the charity chosen for the Green Ribbon Project for this festival. Participating artists put the green ribbon on a piece of their choice in their booth and IF the piece is sold the artist agrees to give 10% of the proceeds to Autism Speaks.
