Join us on Friday, March 20, as the Oak Park Arts District creatively welcomes in the long overdue spring season.  Every third Friday, we keep our doors open late so you can join our art party on Harrison Street between Ridgeland and Austin.  We’ve got something for everybody’s taste, from indulging your passion for the Beatles to drumming in the spring, from rustic Italian dining (where kids eat free this month!) to a casual coffee with a friend.  Enjoy a delicious dinner and then wander the street for art and music.
