Cicadas will be AUCTIONED off online with the monies earmarked for public art in Downtown Glen Ellyn.
25 hand painted cicada sculptures are lining the streets in flowerpots, windows and trees throughout Downtown Glen Ellyn. These 18-inch cicada sculptures are 8 lbs., made of plaster with copper legs and hand painted with love from our local shop owners and artists.
All 25 cicadas will be collected from their current downtown location and available for viewing at the Festival of the Arts located at Lake Ellyn on Saturday, August 24th.
This will be the 55th Annual Festival of the Arts, located at the beautiful Lake Ellyn Park in Glen Ellyn. To learn more about the festival: https://downtownglenellyn.com/festival-of-the-arts
All Cicadas start at $50 with an additional $5 bid. All monies will go towards public art in downtown, such as a mural.
Winners of the online auction can collect each on Sunday, August 25th at the Boathouse of Lake Ellyn. If unable to be present on this day, the Alliance can work with the buyer to forward the Cicada at a later date, or mail at the buyer's expense.
Thank you for your donation.
