Mundelein Community Connection hosts the Mundelein Fine Arts Festival, a juried, two-day outdoor event celebrating creativity and community. The festival showcases the work of talented local artists and craftspeople across a variety of media, complemented by live local music and great food. Additional honors include a $500 Emerging Artist Award presented by the Kirk Players, as well as local business-sponsored Purchase Awards, including the Village of Mundelein’s Annual Purchase Award. In addition to professional artists, the festival proudly features artwork by select students from Carmel Catholic High School and Mundelein High School. Proceeds from the festival support art scholarships for local students pursuing art-related studies in college. The festival is held at Courtland Commons and offers an accessible, welcoming experience for all ages.
