THIS IS NEW! 

 

Take action againgst the cold! Since so many people take extended time away in the winter – and who can blame them – we’ve created a new series of classes. Snowbird Special classes are shorter and packed with info. The perfect chance to try out a new class and just have FUN!

We’ll be sending out the list soon, but if you’re interested in a course email us at info@theartcenterhp.org, or call Mindy, 847-432-1888,

Open Call for Entry

Beyond the Selfie!

March 1-April 7, 2019

Entry Deadline: February 1, 2019

The Art Center Highland Park (TAC) is searching for work that reaches beyond the traditional concept of a self-portrait. With today’s obsession with “Selfies,” how are artists exploring representations of the self? We are looking for work that pushes the boundaries of expression and interpretations of the theme.
