On Father’s Day weekend, more than 75 artists will display their work among the blooming gardens of Cantigny Park in Wheaton.

The park boasts one of the largest display gardens in the Midwest. Adding to its beauty, Cantigny annually celebrates a popular fine art festival. Art in Bloom runs 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, June 18, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, June 19.

Though Art in Bloom is an annual Cantigny tradition, this year’s festival will be different, said Laura Evans, director of visitor services.

Cantigny staff now is producing the festival; in years past, a Chicago-area company has put the pieces together. The change allows Cantigny to personalize the festival, showcasing the park and offering more for patrons, Evans said.
