Festival of the Arts Glen Ellyn

Beneath the canopy of century-old oaks aside Lake Ellyn, the Alliance of Downtown Glen Ellyn will host the 53rd Annual Glen Ellyn Festival of the Arts! This tradition, which for more than 40 years has been held in late August, will welcome over 45 amazing artists showcasing a wide range of mediums. Festival of the Arts in Glen Ellyn has become a favorite of fine artists, a magnet to the community for shoppers and diners, and a key contributor to the attraction and quality of life in Glen Ellyn.

The event is free both to attend and to park! Park by the Path in the Metra Lot that runs along the train tracks or in one of our two new parking garages located either at our Civic Center or off Duane south on Glenwood into the new structure still being constructed (albeit parking garage open).

It is just a short walk from there to enter the festival! Guests can use 2 entrances – one located at Lenox/Linden and the second on Hawthorne where the street greats the path and the journey through Lake Ellyn begins.
