Northbrook has been served by a Community Associates group since 1976, when a small group was encouraged to affiliate with the Art Institute of Chicago. Now with over 200 members, the chapter regularly coordinates with the Art Institute to produce quality visual arts programs and events for the education and enjoyment of those members.
Local programs, trips to regional art and architectural venues plus extended out-of-state tours, along with exhibition-focused lectures at the Art Institute, are offered.
Members reside in the following zip codes: 60062, 60026, 60093, 60025, 60070, 60004, 60201, 60091, 60015, and 60035.
