About Us

The Hoffman Estates Arts Commission was established in 1998 with the mission to bring all the ARTS to Hoffman Estates residents. It is a voluntary advisory commission to the village board and sponsors great events like the Thursday Summer Concert Series, Cup of Casey, Village Hall Art Gallery, Speaker Series, Photography Workshop, the Children's Concerts in the Park with the HE Park District and many more!

The Commission is made up of members (with room for 4 more) who reside Hoffman Estates or work for the village and have a love for all types of art. Our Commissions are

• Jerry Arntzen
