Geneseo event to showcase local artists

GENESEO, Illinois –  The 2024 Geneseo Artwalk is set for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, April 27,  in the downtown area.

The event, hosted by the Geneseo Chamber of Commerce, will showcase the work of local artists.

Downtown businesses will host art performances in stores while artists will be set up inside of the former Four Seasons Outlet building, located at 120 S. State St. The artists will feature their original works as well as live art demonstrations such as painting, sculpting, woodworking and more. 

Live music and interactive exhibits also will be featured. Many local students and artists will be on hand to share their art with the Geneseo Artwalk guests.

Geneseo has been gaining a reputation as a regional art destination with three art galleries, a music store, and a music academy. A mural project has brought three murals to life in Geneseo over the past two years, with plans for two more murals in 2024.
