Welcome to the 42nd Annual Sheffield Garden Walk & Festival, sponsored by the Sheffield Neighborhood Association (SNA), a non-profit community organization. The "Summer's Best Festival" features self-guided tours of more than 90 Gardens, guided Architectural Tours, live entertainment by some of Chicago's and North America's finest bands, food and drink, and activities for children at the Kids Corner.

Proceeds from this volunteer-managed festival provide continued support for neighborhood schools, local institutions, and community projects. In addition, proceeds are allocated to SNA's Award-Winning Beautification Program, a 7-10 year plan to maintain Sheffield as the Garden District of Chicago.

The Sheffield Neighborhood Association invites you to become a Patron of the Garden Walk and attend the Patrons' Party on Friday, June 4th.

The Sheffield Neighborhood Association thanks its 2010 Garden Walk Sponsors, Advertisers, Exhibitors, Patrons, and Volunteers.
