YES Fest Arts & Music Festival

YES Fest returns to Elmhurst to showcase the talents of local musicians, artists and comedians. Founded by a group of York High School students and alumni in 2013,
YES (Youth Elmhurst Showcase) gives attendees an an opportunity to enjoy arts and entertainment by local residents, from music and comedy to poetry readings, dance and visual artists selling their work.

Since year one the fest has moved from a public park, to a garage, and finally to its current home at The Elmhurst Art Museum. The festival stages now share the feet of performers and artists from all around the Chicagoland area in a day of vulnerability, opportunity, support and excitement.
