61st Anniversary
1961-2022
The Naperville Art League (NAL) was founded in 1961. Led by F. Hayman Herndon, the non-profit group met regularly in the basement of a local bank. As classes grew and the League began to prosper, NAL moved to the basement of the old Nichols Library until it was able to purchase its own building. In 1978, NAL established its home on the corner of Center Street and 5th Avenue.
Naperville Sun owners Harold and Eva White became supporters of the League and generously paid NAL's outstanding mortgage balance. Later, NAL was remembered in the White's estate, allowing the League to add a separate gallery to the existing building in 1996.
In 2009, the center became a part of Naperville's Century Walk with the addition of the World's Greatest Artist mural. Designed by Mike Venezia and painted by Marianne Lisson-Kuhn, this signature piece invites visitors to come explore treasures within.
It is our honor to present you the long-time members and founders of the Naperville Art League.
