The 31st annual Prairie Arts Festival is held on the impressive Robert O. Atcher Municipal Center grounds in Schaumburg, IL. Schaumburg is the largest center of economic development in the State of Illinois, outside the City of Chicago, but it is also very much a community of neighbors and neighborhoods.

Enjoyed by artists for its crowds, attentive staff and beautiful location, the premier festival has become a favorite of both vendors and patrons.
