Five grade-level winners have been chosen in the Clarendon Hills Centennial Art Competition.
All art submissions will be displayed at The Birches, 215 55th Street, until the end of May with a program for a self-guided tour. Winning art pieces will be on display at Clarendon Hills Village Hall through the end of 2024, starting at the beginning of June.
Belinda Lutz-Hamel, of Hamel Dental, said that as a retired art teacher of 36 years, her favorite experience at the opening was seeing what the artists found inspiring about Clarendon Hills.A judging panel for the art competition selected five outstanding pieces, based on theme, technique, and creativity.
Assistant Village Manager Mera Johnson said the Village’s Centennial Committee came up with the idea for the competition, and committee member Lutz Hamel quickly took interest in the project. She collaborated with The Birches, Clarendon Hills Library, and North Hill Framing to plan and organize the details for the competition.
