Mission: The Deer Path Art League strives to spark, nurture and enhance creativity as well as raise awareness and appreciation of the arts in the community.

Established in 1954, the Deer Path Art League is a non-profit organization located in the heart of Lake Forest.

The League operates the Deer Path Art League Gallery, which displays the works of local artists in a wide variety of media. We also sponsor numerous art shows and special exhibits, including our annual Art Fair on the Square, held on Labor Day weekend, which has become a tradition of the Illinois North Shore and surrounding communities.

DPAL also offers many classes and workshops in state-of-the-art classrooms.
