Artwork by the Veteran Art Tribe
The Art and Culture Commission of Lemont/Lemont Center for the Arts is pleased to partner with Pollyanna in downtown Lemont to exhibit artwork from the Veteran Art Tribe. The VAT is a tribe of Chicagoland artists who are also U.S. military veterans dedicated to supporting opportunities for veterans to create and interact with various art and expressive modalities. Whether the veterans are using creativity as a therapeutic focus or as a full-time occupation, the Veteran Art Tribe looks to provide awareness, access, agency, and exposure within the art community.
Opening Reception: Sunday, June 8, 2025, 1 pm to 3 pm

While being a separate organization from LAG, the Lemont Art and Culture Commission was formerly housed at Lemont Center for the Arts (LCA). It had exhibits of original artwork and a gift shop with jewelry and handcrafted gifts from local artists on display and for sale. The Lemont Art & Culture Commission is a group of seven appointed members with the mission of enriching the community by cultivating and promoting the appreciation of our heritage through public Art. The Commission has completed several community art projects to date including the downtown mosaic planters at the Village Hall and along Stephen Street; the Stephen Street Bridge mosaics; and the "Pride of Lemont" mural on Front Street. The Lemont Center for the Arts location was run with the commissioners and volunteers, some of which were also LAG members. They had to to close their location at 1243 State Street in Lemont, IL, but are in search of finding a new location. Please support the Lemont Art and Culture Commission and if you want to volunteer or have any ideas for a location in Lemont, please visit their website and contact them or see their email, below.
