The Morton Arboretum presents "Vivid Creatures"
Sat, May 17 – Sat, Apr 17, 2027
4100 Illinois Route 53, Lisle, IL 60532
An exhibition of colorful, large-scale sculptures is open at The Morton Arboretum.
Vivid Creatures is an invitation to explore our connections with the natural world through giant, colorful, playful animal sculptures placed outdoors amid towering trees and sweeping green vistas. Each artwork tells a story about the interconnected relationships between creatures and the ecosystems where they live.
Guests of all ages can delight in an oversized white-tailed deer, brittle button snail, fox squirrel, dragonfly, and sandhill crane—all animals that either migrate through or are part of the Illinois region—depicted in larger-than-life artworks up to 22 feet tall.
The sculptures will be placed among the tree collections and natural areas of The Morton Arboretum, the Chicago area’s largest public garden, where many of these creatures live.
