A brighter future the Oak Park Arts District

by Editorial July 24, 2012Updated February 15, 2021

And speaking of institutions and village gems, we’re anticipating a brighter future for the Oak Park Arts District, given the sentiment of Village President David Pope and other officials who would like to see the area grow as a commercial hub while maintaining its artistic roots. To that end, we hope for a speedy resolution to the whole Kleronomos mess with the village taking a more active role in encouraging the transition to more responsible owners, and giving the arts district the chance it deserves.
