The art of the square
Painted for our hometown
This year's calendar wears an original by Ashley Ann, a local artist and designer who creates hand-drawn pieces inspired by small towns, quiet moments, and meaningful traditions. Her work celebrates community and the beauty found in everyday life.
The scene is our home: Woodstock, Illinois — the town square that starred in Groundhog Day. If the clock tower and gazebo look familiar, you've seen them at the movies. Come December, the square is at its best: community, creativity, and connection, shining brightest during the holiday season.
