Artwork by Mark Lale “Hirshfield Art Studio”
I am inspired by the quote by scholar and poet Eli Siegel: " In reality opposites are one; art shows this. "This painting was my attempt to honor the manyness,the cacophony of a busy art room with a sense of orderliness, logic, everything having its place.
Come check out the "Painted Prairie" show by North Shore Art League Member Artist Denise Siegel. This show will be on display through May 11, 2025.

The 12th Annual Art in the Village juried art show sponsored by the North Shore Art League will take place at Hubbard Woods Park (939 Green Bay Road) in Winnetka on
June 21st and 22nd, 2025 from 10 am – 5 pm.
Welcome...The art community we have fostered here for over 100 years is alive and well! It is a community full of rich experiences, shared passions, creative conversations and special connections through the offering of art classes, exhibits, workshops, lectures and special arts events in Winnetka. Our community happens when we talk to each other at an exhibit; it happens when we get messy in a class; it happens when we sit around a table together to work on projects; it happens when we meet new friends at League events. Art endures - and so has the League! We invite you to explore our adult art classes and art classes for children.
We love our students & artists, so feel free to visit during office hours!
Monday - Friday: 9:00am - 3:30pm
Sign up to hear from us about classes, exhibits, and events.
