Finding this place is another reason why I love Trip Advisor
We were driving from Schaumburg to the Naperville Art Fair and had an hour or so on a Sunday morning. We found this place on Trip Advisor and thank you thank you thank you to the reviewer for giving us a best address to put into our phone Prairie Center for the Arts, which is located at 201 Schaumburg Court, Schaumburg, IL 60193 There were a few people walking around, dad with kids, photographers, a great blue heron and a family of swans, mom, dad and baby. I was touched by this calm beautiful meditative place, if I lived here I'd go every day. A great place to spend an hour, walk around, and take some photos.

Would have better if the carnival wasn’t looming (avoid near Labor Day)
We arrived to find everything fenced with ridiculous orange fencing. Everything. Plus, a local said that several pieces have been removed over the years due to vandalism. So a bit disappointing but still a nice walk after driving from La Crosse.

nice to visit..
On a nice day, this would be a nice place to visit. It is nice because it is free, but it is a little confusing to find it all. There are two sculptures near a lake on one side of a group of buildings. Its very easy to find these because you can see them from the parking lot, but to find the vast majority of the sculptures, its on the other side of the buildings. There’s also no sign pointing the way from the road. Its not too too hard to find, but its strange how they are not all grouped together. Overall, nice place to visit, but the layout is a little confusing.
