Amdur Productions proudly hosts the 18th Glencoe Festival of Art in the prestigious Village of Glencoe, an upscale community on Chicago's North Shore. This outdoor festival features exceptional artwork from more than 100 juried artists from around the world in all mediums, nestled amongst upscale retail shops, galleries, cafes and restaurants in charming downtown Glencoe.

The festival offers about 100 exhibitor spaces with comprehensive artist support including on-site staff throughout the entire event, booth sitting services, close parking at no additional cost, and overnight security.
