In 2023 the event was voted one of the Best in the West, featured in numerous press outlets, and attracted nearly half of its visitors from outside Elmhurst. Discoverable on the weekend of the 27th Annual Art in Wilder Park will be a newly commissioned public art installation of life-sized monsters drawn by cartoonist Dave Pryor inspired by children's drawings.
