Who We Are
The Arts Guild of Homer Glen is a 501(c)(3) charity incorporated in 2018 to bring the visual and performance arts to our community through events and classes. We were looking for a project to reflect our agricultural roots and engage the public in the arts. The Barn Quilt movement had been going strong since 2001 but wasn’t local. Now we have our own Barn Quilt Trail! We placed eleven Barn Quilts during the Covid pandemic. The Barn Quilts are available for a self-guided tour at any time via the map on this website. We can be contacted at: artsguildofhomerglen@gmail.com
