An exciting opportunity to be a part of something very special by the Mundelein Arts Commission !

The application is now live for Lure of the Local 5! Artists interested in exhibiting can apply by visiting www.mundelein.org/LURE. Submissions are due August 30, 2026.

Lure of the Local is an annual, curated art exhibition hosted by the Mundelein Arts Commission (MAC) that highlights the creative practices of artists who live and work among us – our teachers, neighbors, friends, and fellow community members. It is free to apply and participate, and artists of all mediums and skill levels are encouraged to apply.

This year's theme is "Love Letters". Whether it inspires a brand-new piece, helps you see existing work in a new light, or simply gets ideas flowing, we invite artists to begin exploring what Love Letters might mean through their own creative lens.

In this fast paced age of texting, the idea of a love letter is nostalgic and tactile, present. What makes you pause in awe? What image or thing can truly embody love? Is love a fairy tale or fantasy? What artistic process do you lose yourself in like falling in love?

We invite you to consider the quiet anticipation of writing a love letter to the joy of receiving one. Let this theme be a springboard for your expression; what does Love Letters mean to you?
