Deadline Nears For Aspiring Tinley Park 'Benches' Artists

TINLEY PARK, IL — The deadline for artists to submit designs for next year's installment of Tinley Park's Benches on the Avenue is just around the corner.

Local artists with a love of classic cartoons are invited to get in on the fun in 2024, with the next theme of the artistic display in downtown Tinley Park focusing on "Saturday Morning Cartoons."

"If you're a local artist who just can't get enough of 'wascally wabbits' and wise-cracking yellow sponges, the Village invites you to submit a design for the next Benches on the Avenue!" the Village said.

The 2024 benches "will take visitors into the exciting world of cartoons and beyond," the Village said.

Designs should be unique, kid- and family-friendly, imaginative and three-dimensional, with vibrant colors and some degree of three-dimensional art.

Interested artists are invited to submit the 2024 Benches on the Avenue Application at TinleyPark.org/Benches, along with your designs, by Dec. 15 to be considered.

Selected artists will be notified by Dec. 22.
