In 1954, the Oak Park-River Forest Community Associates was
formed to serve the communities of Oak Park and River Forest. Oak Park-River Forest Associates became
the second suburban group to affiliate with the Art Institute of Chicago and
today has an active membership of approximately 200.
Among the creative programs presented annually are
image-illustrated lectures at the Art Institute, which focus on both the
current exhibitions and the permanent museum collection. Also sponsored are an
opening coffee, a spring luncheon, multiple day trips, and most recently, an
extended tour to art venues in other states. All programs are coordinated through the Art Institute.
Members reside in the following zip codes: 60305, 60302,
60301, 60126, 60304, 60707, 60546, 60523, 60521, and 60527.
