Naperville Art League
The Naperville Art League with its Fine Art Center & Gallery, located at 508 N. Center St. in Naperville, is a resource to the community year-round for art, classes, special exhibits, auctions, and more. Each month, new gallery exhibits showcase the work of the talented member artists. These shows provide opportunities for art enthusiasts and collectors to purchase quality, original art at reasonable prices while giving members the ability to display their original pieces in a traditional gallery setting.
The beauty of the visual display is not confined to the interior of the gallery: visitors are invited to enjoy the “Getting to Know the World’s Greatest Artists” mural on the exterior of the building. Designed by author/illustrator Mike Venezia and painted by Marianne Lisson Kuhn, it is one of the most colorful pieces on Naperville’s Century Walk.
Gallery hours are Wednesday through Fridays from noon to 4PM and Saturdays from 10AM to 4PM.
