Deerfield Art Festival: Deerfield Illinois

This exciting new show, in partnership with the Village of Deerfield, takes place on Saturday, June 3 and Sunday, June 4 in the heart of downtown Deerfield and will feature 80 juried artists showcasing and selling their one-of-a-kind pieces including paintings, photography, ceramics, furniture, jewelry, wood, fiber and more. Live music, activities for kids, “Start to Paint” on-site painting classes, selfie stations, and the brand new “Kids Art Stop” where artists invite children to stop at their booth to learn more about the art-making process, add to the family-friendly vibe of this event. Festival food on site and several restaurants just steps away from the artists’ booths will ensure that no one goes hungry! Admission is free, there is plenty of free parking, and the festival grounds (which are near the METRA station) are wheel-friendly with access for wheelchairs and strollers. Attendees are invited to bring their gently used wall art to the festival where it will be donated to the Chicago Furniture Bank, a nonprofit that distributes furnishings and art to those leaving shelters and moving into permanent housing. Several artists from this show are participating in Amdur Productions’ Green Ribbon Project. Artists place a green ribbon on a piece of art in their booth, and if the piece is sold, 10% of the sale will be donated to Amdur’s charitable partner, which this year is the Chicago Furniture Bank.
