Please join us for the Deer Path Art League’s 57th annual Art Fair on the Square held in beautiful Lake Forest, Illinois. This festival was rated as one of the 100 Best Fine Art and Design Shows in the Nation by Sunshine Artist magazine (September 2010). Art Fair Sourcebook rated the 2009 Art Fair on the Square #78 of the top 600 shows in the nation for 2009, with 2010 rankings yet to be published. Art Fair on the Square is the Art League’s signature event and helps the League fulfill its mission to bring high-quality visual arts to the community. The community of Lake Forest is located 30 miles north of Chicago and is easily accessible by the Metra North Line as well as by car. The 180 juried artists set up around the Square and along Western Avenue in downtown Lake Forest. This centralized arrangement makes it easy for visitors to walk the entire show.
