A weekly spotlight on arts activities in Central Illinois. Out and About is made possible in part by PNC Financial Services and a grant from the Illinois Arts Council.

Art and music fills the space at Luthy Botanical Garden

On this episode of WCBU’s Out and About, Dr. Mae Gilliland of ArtsPartners of Central Illinois speaks with Duncan Katlack, organizer of the upcoming Art and Music in the Garden event. The event, held at Luthy Botanical Garden on Sunday, Oct. 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., features a blend of art, live music and wellness activities.

Duncan shares the inspiration behind the event, which has evolved over the years to include around 40 local vendors offering a variety of visual art. We talk about performances by local musicians and a yoga session led by Soulside Healing Arts. Admission is $10 by cash or Venmo.

Jody Holtz was WCBU's assistant program and development director. She left the station in 2025.
