Every third weekend in September, NAL proudly hosts The Riverwalk Fine Art Fair, an outdoor juried art exhibition and sale, which began in 1985. Held along the renowned Naperville Riverwalk and downtown city streets, the show is ranked as one of the top fine art fairs in the United States and features artists from all over the country. In addition to hosting this nationally acclaimed fair, NAL strives to make an artistic mark on the community. Each spring NAL coordinates a public art competition and exhibit, and periodically partners with other local organizations to offer visual art to the public in various ways.
NAL’s Fine Art Center and Gallery invites both artists and the community to understand, practice, and appreciate art. The Gallery is open Tuesday through Friday from 10am until 5:00 P.M. and Saturday from 10:00 A.M. until 4:00 P.M.
