2020 La Grange Scavenger Hunt

Local businesses are sponsoring a unique outdoor art exhibit of colorful wheeled party carts called “La Grange Rolls with It. Nearly 30 whimsical rolling carts have been painted by local artists to encourage support of La Grange businesses and draw attention to its lively arts community.

"La Grange Rolls With It" is sponsored by the Park District of La Grange, Douglas Auto Body and the Village of La Grange along with dozens of business owners. Designs range from sophisticated to outlandish and contemporary to traditional. The wheeled carts will be displayed outdoors through Labor Day and auctioned in September to benefit local nonprofit groups.

Scavenger Hunt Encourages Admirers to Explore La Grange Businesses Block by Block 
Admirers of the art exhibit are invited to explore it block-by-block and “hunt” for items that have been painted on the carts. Details of the exhibit that lists the location of the artwork, the items to find and instructions on how to submit answers are posted here or through the La Grange mobile app, available for free in the Google and Apple Stores. Three winners will be randomly selected from all correct submissions to receive $100 in La Grange Gift Certificates.
