The Community Foundation of Northern Illinois (CFNIL) invites the community to experience creativity, connection, and local history at this year’s Spring ArtScene.

Visitors are welcome to explore a special exhibition featuring incredible works of art created by artists in Project Art—a program of The Arc of Winnebago, Boone, & Ogle Counties. Project Art supports adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in exploring creativity and self-expression, providing a space where artistic voices can flourish.

Each piece in the exhibition reflects the unique perspective, imagination, and lived experience of its artist. Together, the collection highlights the power of art to foster confidence, build connections, and create a sense of belonging for both artists and viewers alike.

In addition to the gallery experience, guests will have the opportunity to tour CFNIL’s historic stone house. Located along the scenic Rock River, the building showcases remarkable architecture and rich local history, offering a glimpse into the region’s past while serving as a vibrant workplace for the Community Foundation today.

Spring ArtScene at CFNIL:

• Friday, April 24th, 5-8pm
• Saturday, April 25th, 4-8pm
