Mundelein Community Connection and the Mundelein Park & Recreation District announce the 10th annual Mundelein Fine Arts Festival, a juried art festival that will showcase the unique talents of 45 fine artists who work in a variety of media. The two-day event will be held from 10 am to 5 pm daily and will feature top-notch artists, local musicians and tasty food.
In addition to professional artists, Mundelein Fine Arts Festival will also highlight artwork by select students from Carmel Catholic and Mundelein High School.
A committee of well-known judges will award a cash prize for Best of Show and Best in Category (six categories). The Kirk Players will award a $500 Emerging Artist Award. There are also Purchase Awards including the Village of Mundelein’s Annual Purchase Award.
