Small in stature, but bigger than life in attitude and impact, Bobbie Raymond left a legacy that lives on in Oak Park and beyond. Now she will forever be remembered with a bronze bust, permanently displayed on a stone pedestal in the courtyard at the Oak Park Art League (OPAL), 720 Chicago Ave., Oak Park.

“A year of dance, music, poetry and visual arts.”
