Vivid Creatures – Come explore and photograph the new outdoor art exhibition at The Morton Arboretum. Each artwork tells a story about the relationships between creatures and the ecosystems where they live. Delight in an oversized deer, snail, squirrel, dragonfly, and sandhill crane—all animals native to northern Illinois—depicted in brightly decorated larger-than-life artworks up to 22 feet tall. Details at The Morton Arboretum website.
